My hunch is that this is related to #34148.

Awake disappears (disabled) from Tray Area (and not working) when toggling between internal laptop screen and external one (Win+P).
I must disable, re-enable it many times to make it appears again on tray area.
Do you plan add keyboard shortcuts to enable/disable Awake on next versions?
Good job ! Thnx
