Here is my experience to fix the same issue.
I have read though all the posts in this thread. In one of the reply that submitted by Yanw, a Vmware employee, motioned that he was not able to replicate the problem. This makes me thinking whether there is anything unique on my workstation and is network related contributing to this issue.
So I uninstalled "Wireshark", "Zenmap (Window's flavor of Namp)". I also removed the WinPCAP driver and NPCAP driver which were installed together with Wireshark/Zenmap. After that, everything works as expected.
Now I am able to leave the VMs on (both windows and linux OS), place the Windows 10 host into sleep. And still able to RDP/SSH to them after waking up the host.
I hope my experience could provide some hint of fixing this issue. What I mean is take a look of the apps on your PC that are network related, removing them and see.
Another observation: Windows 10 starts to allocate apps (including VMware workstation in my case) to utilize GPU computing resource. It's a good idea but I am not 100% comfortable at the moment. Although there is no issue experienced so far, I will make a note here just in case something happens in the future.
