It's funny you mention this, I've had both of these problems since 2020 and in fact haven't found a way to resolve them to this day. I have to boot into Windows just to connect to an HDMI display or use Bluetooth headphones.

My kernel updated from 5.15 to 5.18 and almost all my programs that use Nvidia hardware acceleration stopped working. I had to learn how to downgrade my kernel just to be able to hardware encode videos again.

Software distribution on Linux is still a massive dumpster fire, you'd think Flatpaks/AppImages would solve that but they introduce their own problems. I often just bite the bullet and compile everything from source since there's literally no other option.
