Description of the bug

After a recent upgrade (didn't catch previous version numbers unfortunately), v10.11.1 has constant restarts when androidtv v0.18.11 is connected to it. This does NOT occur when only the web clients are connected.

Reproduction steps

use androidtv client
sign-in
navigate to a library (most actions seem to kick it off, including playing a file)

What is the current bug behavior?

The server restarts fairly often

What is the expected correct behavior?

The server should not restart

Jellyfin Server version

10.10.0+

Downgrading to 10.10.7 resolves the issue.

I'm not entirely sure that it isn't occurring on the web client also.
