M1 MacBook Pro "Disk Not Ejected Properly" several times during sleep

I have the same problem as described in M1 MacBook Pro "Disk Not Ejected Properly… - Apple Community

with a new Mac Book Pro M1 (14 inch 2021, macOS 12.4) and a Samsung external USB-C drive.

I have the disk directly connected (not through a hub or dock).

The disk (time machine backup disk) is ejected randomly during sleep.

Any ideas how to fix this problem?

it's a bug, either hardware or software, that apple refuses to acknowledge. You can prevent your computer from sleeping via the pmset command - "sudo pmset -a sleep 0", but that may cause the internal SSD to have a shorter life span.
