Pulseaudio stutters after playing audio for >10 minutes

Hello Arch forum! I've got a bit of a weird problem.

I have a ThinkPad T14 Gen 1 (Intel) I've installed Arch on. This is a relatively new install, only about two weeks old, but since installing I've had a weird issue where 85 percent of the time, after 10 or more minutes of playing audio, it will slow the audio and produce a glitchy/droning noise that persists even after pausing any playing audio. This has happened to me while playing a YouTube video and music from my Navidrome server through the website and Feishin. Both internal speakers and wired headphones are affected, and unplugging the wired headphones just passes the signal to the speakers. pavucontrol says there is still something playing and the little meter under the volume slider doesn't match up with what I'm hearing. I am not sure what to try, I've never really run into this problem, but I'd be happy to provide anything that may be of help.

Thanks in advance
