I noticed in a fairly recent version of KDE, my computer would pretend to be a bluetooth sink when connected to devices like my phone.

This is a really cool feature, and I really like it, because it lets me stream audio from my phone to my computer with no fuss.

However, there is an annoying glitch where the stream stops all of a sudden. The phone keeps playing the music, but I can't hear anything. I've noticed that this seems to have something to do with CPU usage, like when I switch windows rapidly or do something that requires CPU the bluetooth process is dropped. The only reliable way to fix it is to disconnect and reconnect, or wait a minute, and then it works again. Is there any way to fix this more persistently?

I am using CachyOS + KDE right now.
