For some reason my audio speaker (doesn’t matter which one) goes silent after no specific amount of time then disconnects and then reconnects.

I’m using Fedora 40 with Kernel version 6.3-18

Restarting the service didn’t helped. Changing Power Mode from Power Saver to Balanced helped a little bit. But it still happens after ~30 mins.
