Fpp 9.5 but was also doing it on 9.4. Master is a pi and a mix of kulps, wally boards and pi's for screens.

Describe the bug and Steps to reproduce:
A clear and concise description of what the bug is and the steps to be taken to reproduce.
So went to Florida for a few days but have never experienced this issue before. When I try to run a sequence, I was noticing basically the display would freeze for a moment then play, then freeze again every 3-4 seconds. Only time I had this happen was when trying to have a background effect playing on my tune to screens, but the folks on the zoom room helped me set those up and the show ran fine after that. Fast forward to last week and now when I try to play a sequence or playlist, it has this pause going on. I had went to the zoom room and we switched the master to another device and ran it with no issues. We then switched back to the main player and did sequence only with no audio and it worked and has worked flawlessly if I stay without sequences. There is no longer background effects or sequences playing, I removed all things like fpp mon and display brightness control to make sure that the issue wasn't there. I updated to 9.5 hoping there was a bug that would fix it, but unfortunately we haven't been able to figure it out. Even replaced the memory card and re-uploaded everything and it still does it. They basically checked everything they could so I'm hoping someone here can help with it.

Expected behavior:
For the player to play without the stuttering when having an audio file attached to the sequence.
