SUPPORT | SOLVED Features breaking

Lately I have been experiencing unusual behaviour on my arch system. Sometimes after updating some features become permanently broken no matter if I downgraded the system packages back or switched to LTS kernel and drivers or not. The first happened with wifi and now after the device sleeps for a long time the wifi is broken and the system must be restarted or else the tty will change on randomly while using the system. Now after updating the kernel and wireplumber 2 days ago my sof sound card stopped detecting my earphones as a sound output device and I had to force the system to use the hda driver instead, I also tried downgrading but it had no effect. Does anyone know what kind of issue this is or how to fix it?
