vista beta 2 power options

Dl'd Vista Beta 2 yesterday and installed the Home Basic. No Aero. Reinstalled with Ultimate key and things are going pretty well. Getting errors from Windows Mail; bombs out when dl'ing NG's... does some and then errors out. Can't get my mail account to work either. Same settings as my XP box, so...
I've got an Audigy 2 sound card. In 5308, I used the modded drivers and they installed fine every time. With the new drop, the modded drivers were locking up during install, but I finally got it to install by uninstalling the soundcard (multimedia device) in DM, rebooting, and pointing it to the audio drivers folder when asked where the drivers were.
Have one problem that's annoying... the Vista box is hooked up to a KVM. With the 5308 build, I could put the seat to sleep and mash my kybd to switch to the other computer, no problem. Now when I put it to sleep, when I hit the kybd or mouse, it wakes up the Vista seat instead of KVM'ing to the other box. I checked the power settings, found and disabled hybrid sleep and one other setting that seemed like it might be related (seat is shut down now so I could get to the other box...), but still getting the same result; looks like Vista is grabbing the kybd and mouse when it's asleep.
Thanks,
Lang

Actually, I was wrong... it does KVM to the other seat but it ALSO wakes up the Vista box...
