Some more (hopefully) useful information.
1) If you never click the Energy auto-solve button, the sim will spontaneously go to bed and sleep, night after night, without problems; the bug is triggered when you click the Energy Auto-solve button for the first time.
2) When the bug has been triggered, doing the following things are completely useless to solve the problem:
- selling and re-buying the bed
- restarting the game (saved with the bug active)
- shift-clicking the bed to reset the object.
3) No matter how many beds there are on the lot, once the bug has been triggered, the sim won't use them spontaneously.
4) In any case, manually sending a sim to sleep works fine.
5) Clicking other auto-solve buttons (bladder, hunger...) doesn't affect the bug; however, I noticed (in other games, not this specific test game) that occasionally some other auto-solve buttons trigger odd actions, like drinking coffee to auto-solve the bladder bar. This last oddity may be totally unrelated to the bug, though.
@Numenor65--i use auto-solve for energy most of the time. when i don't, my Sims still sleep or nap autonomously in their assigned beds (either double or single), even if they tend to be very tired when they finally decide to.
i've even tested on a three-year-old save so you can imagine i've used auto-solve there quite a lot. if i let them, everybody sleeps when they're absolutely knackered, and nap when not as much. or, as Crin explained, when it's not night.
