Yes, I too had concluded that the sleep function, even for 'at end of song', was simply time-based. But no, just adding a second would not be a satisfactory fix. If the following track was ripped from a live album, and started immediately with remnant applause from the previous track (on the CD; not in my playlist, which is shuffled), then the extra second of audio is going to play a brief but abrupt burst of applause, which I would find a very unpleasant way to end a soothing song before sleeping. We need a different way to fix the issue. I suggested one some years ago on this forum, but was laughed out of the house. Essentially it involved maintaining two 'pointers' into the current playlist: 'now playing' and 'next to play'. When 'sleep at end of song' was activated, and the current song came to an end (i.e. LMS went into stop mode), both pointers would be incremented by 1 and stored. So when PLAY is next pressed, it will start from the new 'now playing' track, which is the one following the one that played immediately prior to sleeping. Just one idea; I'm sure the clever programmers maintaining LMS can come up with others.
