[Solved] CalDigit USB 3.0 kexts from Multibeast breaks sleep functionality on my ASUS P8Z68-V Pro Gen 3

Hi,

I've been working for the past couple weeks trying to get USB 3.0 working on my Asus P8Z68V-PRO Gen3 mobo. Luckily the new Multibeast makes enabling USB 3.0 pretty easy but it breaks my previously working sleep. So long story short, my USB 3.0 works great after installing the CalDigit kexts, but sleep no longer works (goes to sleep, but automatically wakes up after about 5 seconds)

I've seen posts from "jrii" all over tonymacx86.com and osx86.net where he's got it to work:

I've tried this same fix using DSDT Editor to edit my DSDT but it just results in a kernel panic (see attachment for error screen)

Any help here? Perhaps my DSDT editing skills aren't perfect but I'm really frustrated (I need the speed of USB 3.0 but I have my computer in my bedroom so ironically the loud fan of the computer that can't sleep keeps ME from sleeping!)

So any help would be super appreciated. If "jrii" is out there I could try his own DSDT or perhaps he could help me edit my DSDT that I've linked to:
(for some reason my DSDT.aml files are too big to upload to this forum- is this a sign I edited them incorrectly?)
Here's a link to my dropbox for the DSDT:

Thanks again everyone!

So after installing the PXHCD kext, USB 3.0 didn't work anymore. I reinstalled the CalDigit kext and USB 3.0 worked! But sleep is still broken. *sad face*

I think I'll try to reach out to the DSDT section of this forum to see if anyone there can help.
