Plex Client (Amazon Fire TV) not waking Sleeping Macbook Pro Server

I'm looking to move to Plex from iTunes, but when after watching for a while on the Amazon Fire TV, when trying to go back through the menus, the Plex client just freezes (3 dots displayed centre screen) until I manually wake up the laptop.

If I do the same thing watching iTunes content (not Plex) on Apple TV3, the Apple TV is responsive whether the laptop is asleep or not.

How can I get the Plex Client to continue to work, whether the laptop is asleep or not? I know it's not the end of the world manually waking up the laptop, but it should be able to do it on its own.

System Details:
Plex Server 0.9.15.0.1621-344f193 running on MacBook Pro Retina OSX 10.11.2 wifi via Apple Airport Extreme
Plex Client on Amazon Fire TV 2

This also applies to the Plex client running on an iPad not being able to wake the server.

Cheers

Roger
