I think this may be wishful thinking rather than actual improvement.

I cannot test until you tell me exactly how you shutdown and wake up the
players and systems. 
Does the player shut the server down ?
Does the server shutdown out of inactivity ?
Is the server woken by a keyboard press
Is the server woken by a WakeOnLan magic packet ?  If so is the Server
wireless or wired connection to player ? 
What is the W10's "state" (as defined by MS) of the server when it is
asleep ? 

There are so many options and variations -that I cannot test unless I
have information.

My gut feel is that it is somehting to do with server taking too much
time to wakeup. More time than the LMS s/w allows especially with synced
players and so LMS s/w timeouts 

As I said above I don't think HLS will necessarily be a better option
there is very little difference in implementation.  MP3 is quite a
different implementation.
