[argyllcms] Win7 losing monitor profile on wake

I'm an dispcalGUI / Argyll CMS noob, but am extremely glad I tried this out
before deciding to return my Spyder3 Pro.  The calibration with Argyll is
significantly better than the results I was getting from the Sypder3
software.

After calibration & profiling, I have a new monitor profile installed in
Windows 7.
I've switched between the new and old profiles with dispwin to observe the
differences.
However, when the laptop wakes from sleep or hibernate, the monitor profile
information appears to be lost and the colors return to the system default.


With the Spyder3 utility, they had a taskbar utility that would reapply the
monitor profile after a few seconds.  It was annoying, but at least my
profile was reapplied.

Is this normal behavior?
Is there some utility I need to be running after wake to reapply the monitor
profile?

Thanks,
- eric
