Just a silly question - am I wrong or it was just implemented in main program with introduction of foobar 1.2.6 (last option under "Playback") ?

But as far as I investigated it foo_nds is better option - it lets you enabling and disabling this function with own keyboard shortcut.

Deactivate standby of monitor (with speakers) during playback

I installed the component on my Sony Duo on Windows 8.1 and swiched it ON in the menu.
But when I'm playing music, the monitor goes into standby and the music stop playing.
I´d like to have no monitor standby while playing music on foobar2000.
What do I have to Change?

I'm not familiar with software Sony bundles with their machines but it certainly sounds like they bundle something that prevents Windows power savings from working the way they should. If the only software on it is what Sony support page has available to download, then my guess would be that Control Center causes this behavior. You could try uninstalling these bundled programs to see if it helps.
