6 months ago Just had the same thing happen to me. Ubuntu 22.04. Came across this report when I searched for the assertion failed message I found in syslog after restarting.

6 months ago I resolved this myself and unfortunately it was by moving off Arch. Not sure if this is the same with others but mine stemmed from a Kernel level conflict between the Arch distro and my Nvidia drivers. Current system is using Intel 12 series i7 and Nvidia RTX3080 card.
Don't have logs available because I resolved this myself on a previous OS install, but I found the issue resolved itself when I moved to the Intel CPU GPU. I moved to Kubuntu to continue shake out, and the issue reappeared until I moved to the latest Nvidia drivers, 545.xx.xx.
