If you would like to address an audio issue, I'll gladly hijack the thread.
Linux mint, occasionally my audio starts crackling. Only fix is to open terminal and run pulseaudio -k.
Happens maybe twice a day with my system.
That can happen when there's a mismatch between the sample rate your audio device expects and what it receives. One way to fix this is to force the system to only allow one sample rate. I forget which files need to be edited for this, perhaps someone else will know, but you have a list of accepted and fallback sample rates, and you need to delete all except one.
I can't say that it will solve your specific issue, but it solved mine and I had the same symptoms.
Tried pipewire?
I just followed this guide here. I'll give it a shot!

Update, no issues since!
Pipewire is standard in Mint these days. It borked my installation, though, when I tried to upgrade with Pipewire already installed.
