I also downgrade kernel to: 6.18.2, but I had the same errors and returned to current: 6.18.3-arch1-1.1

Edit:
Releted: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=304668

Fix:

As per https://github.com/bluez/bluez/issues/1767

 wpctl settings bluetooth.autoswitch-to-headset-profile false 

mitigates the issue for me.
