My pipewire keeps stuttering whenever I do something involving audio and I get unlucky

General system Newbie

So every once in a while, whatever audio is playing gets stuck and keeps repeating. YouTube videos slow down with a stutter effect whenever this happens. It’s annoying having to restart pipewire to fix the issue all the time, so I figured I’d ask for help.
I think I need to attach some other info stuff, so here’s that:
