Notebook goes to sleep with agent running.
Notebook comes from sleep a few days later.
Any request to agent hangs infinitely.

I have a guard script running that kill and restart the agent every hour if
it is not responding within five seconds.

This is not 100% reproducible, and hard to test due to timing issue, but the
pattern is very noticeable.
