Phone won't sleep - losing patience with my EVO

Ok, yes I love my Evo, but as we know the battery life is horrid. I have a second battery and charger, but still sometimes 2-3 hours tops - when in my pocket. I turn off all the recommended things and I turn sync off.

I have hard reset several times. I kept a log of my apps I put on and the effects. I have System Panel to check too.

Here is the situation. Without adding an app or changing a parameter, after a day or two. my phone will not sleep. Thus the battery runs out real fast.

It seems to coincide with the first launching of the music player, when it builds an initial catalog of my music from the SD card. After that, my phone never sleeps again until a hard reset.

Any suggestions? I'm stock on unrooted 2.2. Other then this issue, I'm very satisfied. I'm considering rooting just to help with this issue and running cyanogen. (I hate the sprint crap and sense anyway .. but that is another topic)

Thanks in advance
Jeff
