Can you post the script /usr/sbin/SetWakeupTime here?

I would think that it is a permission problem, but it wouldn't explain
why it works most of the time. The location of the script /bin/sbin also
suggests that root privileges might be required to run it. If not, then
the command to set the wakeup time within the script certainly needs
root privileges.

You should run the script with "sudo /usr/sbin/SetWakeupTime" and add it
to your sudoers file to run without password prompt.
