I have activated option in XBMC for Pulse-Eight CEC adapter to put devices in standby mode when activating screensaver.

It works fine, when xbmc runs screensaver tv goes to standby. Pressing any key wakes up hdmi device from standby. So far all ok :)

The problem is that if hdmi device is in standby because of screensaver if you press Power key (to put system to standby) it wakes up hdmi device from standby and simultaneously put system to sleep which negate the reason for complete power off (standby) of all devices when pressing Power key.
Result: HDMI device on, HTPC off

I think when xbmc has screensaver active and hdmi device is in standby mode only system should be suspended/turned off, and xbmc should ignore Power key as signal to wake up hdmi device from standby mode.
Result HDMI device off, HTPC off
