Spotify lagging and unresponsive UI on Arch linux

I’ve been having some issues with Spotify on Arch Linux (installed from the AUR using yay). When I try to play a song, there’s a noticeable delay before it actually starts (graphically), though I can still hear the audio right away. Sometimes the UI is unresponsive to clicks, I can’t switch songs or interact with it properly. The lag is random, sometimes it works fine, but other times it freezes and makes the app really frustrating to use. Here’s what I’ve tried so far: - Running Spotify from the terminal doesn’t show any error messages. - I’ve tried using the --no-sandbox flag, but that didn’t help. My system setup: - Arch Linux (fully updated) - Display Server: Xorg - GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 Max-Q + Intel Iris Xe (Hybrid Graphics), but I’m only using the NVIDIA GPU. - Kernel: 6.12.17 LTS - DE: Plasma 6.3.2 - WM: KWin The issue often happens when I start the application and try to play a song right away or when I’m rapidly switching between songs. It freezes, but it’s frequent enough to make Spotify pretty annoying to use. I also tried disabling GPU acceleration with spotify --disable-gpu, but I got a "stack smashing detected" error, so that didn’t work either. Has anyone else dealt with something like this? Any ideas on what I can try next?
