For the Wake command, something like this:

 wol --ipaddr 192.168.x.255 xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx

For the Sleep command, try to execute it from the command
line as the same user that runs it:

 sudo -s -u mythtv
 path to script that shuts down my slave
 
Also, look for any errors in your log files, probably:

 /var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.log
