it happens daily, i think it is when I leeave it enough time for the samsung screen to sleep. i use a flashdrive for time machine and have an external docking station handling minor tasks, basically just the mouse and keyboard. When asking customer support i was adviced to reinstall os, and did, but it did not help. service said it is fine. i though mac was supposed to be smooth...
Mac mini, macOS 14.6
The latest macOS versions are having various issues with automatic computer sleep mode.
Some systems crash and force a restart, others freeze up and are unresponsive.
As a test:
Turn on "Prevent automatic sleeping when display is off" in the Energy Settings and only allow the display to turn off.
Leave the Mac ON during the day and only allow the display to turn OFF after 10 or 15 minutes.
Then shut down for longer periods of non-use like overnight and when away, if desired.

Use the settings below exactly as shown, might fix:
Keep the settings even if it doesn’t.
Also, do not manual sleep your computer. Shut for long absences and overnights, otherwise leave on and let the display shut off on timer:
Uncheck Wake, should fix.
+ 1 uncheck Wake for network access and Start up automatically after a power failure.
This seems to have fixed the issue! Counter-intuitive, and I wish support had told me so that I neednt have spent money on a troubleshoot! Well good thing it is now solved. Big thanks!
tHanks guys, great to know I am not the only one experiencing these hickups, and that there is nothing seriously wrong. Ialready have thos settings on, so not sure what else might help.
Thanks for updating 👍🕺🍻
