Issue when using computer as bluetooth audio receiver (using pipewire)

Hi,
I'm using my laptop as bluetooth speaker for my android phone, It has worked well for a long time, and it is the default behavior when connecting a phone to a linux computer with bluetooth. But recently I experienced strange problem that ,when I start to play a media on my phone, sometimes I get no sound, the other times it goes well randomly. I cannot find out what causes that, and I hardly remember which upgrade make changes. I'm using pipewire and wireplumber on latest archlinux.

this is some message when I get no sound, with bluetoothctl. If I input 'player.play' command, the sound will play normally, but it cannot permanently solve the problem.
