Flathub version of OBS-Studio is crashing every time I close the app.

I have Fedora 43 KDE Plasma. Every time I close the flathub version of OBS-studio, it crashes and then resets my settings to default. I have no clue why this is happening. I tried clearing the cache and running the auto wizard. By the way the Auto Wizard fails to set up when choosing optimizing for streaming and recording as secondary. I notice that the cause for the crash is possibly org.kde.platforms version. OBS-studio flathub version still runs on version 6.8. However that is EOL and the current version is 6.10. Perhaps an update is in order. As of now I have yet to get the flathub version to work. The RPM version of OBS is stable, however I am unable to install plug-ins. (By the way a plasma x11 session doesn't fix anything and plasma x11 barely works in Fedora 43)

My computer specs are as such:

Please help as I'd prefer to use the flathub version of OBS as the RPM is broken and just missing basic features like account connect for RMPT Youtube, and doesn't make it easy to install plugins for OBS (I couldn't get most plugins i use to work in the .config and .local directories in the home directory when using hte RPM version and most plugins i used when still on Windows, have plugins that are debian based (.deb or .ddeb). However OBS crashing everytime I close the app is frustrating.
 
This is a bug caused by a change to the shutdown logic in 32.0.3 that has not been reverted yet. Your best bet is rolling back to 32.0.2 until they get around to it.

The flathub verison of OBS studio is version 32.0.2 That's the version that is crashing on me. It's not caught up with the windows version of 32.0.4. So I'm still stuck.
 
Also here is the crash code below.
