Having the same exact issue here and I've done about every troubleshooting step I've come across and it still has the same issue, ever since the July 17th update I've been searching everywhere and it all just comes down to updates messing everything up because at this point it isn't a hardware issue, there's crashes happening with the wake up and I was able to narrow it down to errors in a couple of DLLs which suggest it is in fact a bug in the software as of these recent updates.

You could cover the proximity sensor to keep the headset awake.

Or disable the sensor... google for that.
