I can sleep (and have slept) with a mask on on several flights. If one turns away from aisle, might be able to hide lack of mask use, but I think a FA has every right (and maybe an obligation) to wake a sleeping passenger noticeably w/o a mask on. There's an announcement that masks can be removed for eating/drinking (with prompt replacement), but no exception for sleeping is offered. Covid doesn't tuck itself in when you do, and even though one might get a negative pre-arrival test, there's no guarantee one can't pick up a couple of virological hitchhikers in Honolulu..
