checkWakeLocks caught Exception [message #977910]

I have an app that calls a class from the receiver below. It works fine when the phone is awake, but as soon as it is put to sleep, it returns the following error from logcat:
E/DeepSleepService(745): checkWakeLocks caught Exception java.io.FileNotFoundException: /sys/power/active_wake_lock: open failed: ENOENT (No such file or directory)

I can find nothing on the internet regarding that exception.

Here is the the receiver class:
//------------------------
import android.content.BroadcastReceiver;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.PowerManager;
import android.util.Log;

public class OnAlarmReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
AlarmAlertWakeLock.acquireCpuWakeLock(context);
PowerManager pm = (PowerManager) context.getSystemService(Context.POWER_SERVICE);
PowerManager.WakeLock wl = pm.newWakeLock(PowerManager.PARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK, "wakelock");
wl.acquire();
context.startService(new Intent(context, Track.class));

wl.release();

}

}
//----------------------------------

Here is the AlarmAlertWakeLock class:
//----------------------------------
import android.content.Context;
import android.os.PowerManager;
import android.util.Log;

class AlarmAlertWakeLock {
private static PowerManager.WakeLock sCpuWakeLock;

static void acquireCpuWakeLock(Context context) {
if (sCpuWakeLock != null) {
return;
}
PowerManager pm =
(PowerManager) context.getSystemService(Context.POWER_SERVICE);

sCpuWakeLock = pm.newWakeLock(
PowerManager.PARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK, "AlarmAlertWakeLock");
sCpuWakeLock.acquire();
}

static void releaseCpuLock() {
if (sCpuWakeLock != null) {
sCpuWakeLock.release();
sCpuWakeLock = null;
}
}
}
//---------------------------------------

I have registered the receiver and added permission in my manifest:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WAKE_LOCK" />

<receiver android:name="com.myApp.OnAlarmReceiver"
android:enabled="true"
android:exported="false"
android:label="OnAlarmReceiver">
</receiver>

Any idea what is causing this error when the phone is put to sleep, and how to fix?
