Reproduction Steps
Tested the reproduction steps, and the issue still persists. This issue does not happen when I use VLC media player, only on MPV. It happens regardless of the playback device I use. I am only using these lines for my mpv.conf,
"profile=gpu-hq
vo=gpu-next
hwdec=yes
gpu-api=vulkan".
Let me know if there is anything I need to do or add as an attempt to fix this issue.
Expected Behavior

I carefully read all instruction and confirm that I did the following:
- I tested with the latest mpv version to validate that the issue is not already fixed.
- I provided all required information including system and mpv version.
- I produced the log file with the exact same set of files, parameters, and conditions used in "Reproduction Steps", with the addition of
--log-file=output.txt. - I produced the log file while the behaviors described in "Actual Behavior" were actively observed.
- I attached the full, untruncated log file.
- I attached the backtrace in the case of a crash.

Research direction

Compare playback across the reported devices and inspect the relevant audio and video playback behavior; done means identifying and fixing the cause without introducing the sound in the supplied reproductions.
