Error - Push Buffer DMA Allocation Failure Leading to Unrecoverable X Server Crash

Graphics / Linux Linux
1

I have a RTX 4060 Ti, with Driver version 570.124.06 on Ubuntu 22.04 and have been encountering complete system freezes. I have not been able to reproduce them, but they seem to mostly happen when using Firefox often when creating new tabs or scrolling. I have had it happen without Firefox open, but not nearly as much as when I am using it. Usually the issue occurs once every ~30 minutes.

It’s completely unresponsive, so I need to use the power button to shut it off.

journalctl gives me:

I have tried a different driver version but it did not resolve the issue for me.
