Remote Play Crashes Deck (from deck to PC for stream capture)

I used to stream Deck content on Twitch all the time by streaming FROM my deck to my PC and capturing the Remote Play stream with OBS. It worked almost flawlessly for a long time. Now it CONSTANTLY hard crashes the deck almost instantly when I try to connect my deck to my desktop via remote play..

I've tried many things ....multiple branches of the OS builds, multiple versions of proton, releasing IPs, turning off IPV6, turning off hardware acceleration. adjusting some client/host options in remote play..........I dunno what to do.

Most games crash almost as soon as i click stream, some will wait just long enough until i think it's actually working then crackle and crash. It almost always takes the whole Deck down with it too and requires a hard reset. I can't game/stream on my laptop (hardwired via ethernet btw) because it's not built for it and this solution worked well for so long.

Kind of bummed this is what's keeping me from streaming as I was really working to do it regularly and even had a few regular followers for once.

Any idea what's going on here?
