wyse p20 login to windows kicks back out to login screen

I had users who had problems logging into their view desktops while using p20 wyse devices and vmware view 5. After typing in their username and password it would make the sounds for windows login, sometimes flash the login screen, the monitors would go black, and then it would kick them back out to the login screen. Before I figured out what was going on I found out that restarting their computer would solve the problem. After digging around on the internet, I found a few posts that mentioned this may be isolated to teradicci clients (p20) however when the windows desktop was setting the monitors to sleep (default 15 min) the view login was not able to wake them back up properly.

In order to resolve this create a COMPUTER gpo that sets the monitors to never sleep for all windows desktops that are using this type of setup.
