Slow boot and no external monitors with wayland after latest upgrade

I have seen some posts today about more people having this problem. It was supposed to be fixed by the latest upgrade (nvidia-utils - 575.57.08-3) but that's not the case for me.

What happens is that my usual boot time (which is around 3 seconds) is 30 seconds or more (occasionally panics and reboots) and then, in case I log in into a wayland session, my external monitors won't work.

The versions of nvidia and all the kernels I use (the problem happens in all of them):

pacman -Q nvidia-utils nvidia-dkms linux
pacman -Q nvidia-utils nvidia-dkms linux linux-zen linux-lts
nvidia-utils 575.57.08-3
nvidia-dkms 575.57.08-3
linux 6.15.1.arch1-2
linux-zen 6.15.1.zen1-2
linux-lts 6.12.32-1

The kernel modules related to nvidia that I load on boot (via grub config) are:

nvidia_drm.modeset=1 nvidia.NVreg_EnableGpuFirmware=0  nvidia_drm.fbdev=0 nvidia.NVreg_PreserveVideoMemoryAllocations=1

The boot journal:

Output of "lspci -k":

For now, all I can think of is downgrading to a previous driver version and/or kernel until it is fixed. Are there any other workarounds or troubleshooting steps I could try to help with the issue?
