Is audio gear sensitive to static electricity?


I have a Denafrips Pontus 2 that keeps going into standby mode by itself. Sometimes it happens several times a day and then won't happen for a week or two. Sometimes it happens while I'm listening to music and many times it happens in between uses. My practice is to leave it fully on at all times so it sounds it's best when I'm ready to listen. It started happening this winter and with the heated air in the house, the indoor humidity is usually around 30 %- 40%. So I'm wondering if it's related to the low humidity levels in the house and the subsequent static electricity.
