Browser source (streamlabs Chat) stops working/freezes mid stream

So my chat stops working mid stream in OBS. It freezes, and does not update the browser source. It works again after restarting OBS. The last chat message that's shown is from 22.04, but no error shows (except for the debug error which happens from a background clip running - but that cant cause this issue, right? I get some errors further down (22:41:43.602) when i tinker with the chat browser source. I can see new messages in the streamlabs preview url, but not in OBS.

I also have a filter with a png fade on this source. The source it self is nested from a chat scene.

The "warning: Could not update timestamps for discarded samples." is from an issue with the audio track on a background video loop, and i only think its FFMPEG that's generating that warning. Still, that should not affect the chat browser source?
 
It must be an OBS issue, right - and not streamlabs? Since I can se the chat in the streamlabs browser preview (and it works again after restarting OBS)
 
I had this issue when the Streamlabs server stopped pushing updates to the browser source before. I removed/recreated the source with a refreshed URL from the SL site, and did a manual full-clear of the OBS browser cache (deleted the contents of %APPDATA%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser\Cache and Code Cache and GPUCache as well as the Cookies file, with OBS NOT running). It started working reliably after that.
