I'm not familiar with kernel releases on Arch but knowing it's a rolling release, I'm guessing you're getting whatever's released upstream from kernel.org. Assuming this is true, you'd be getting all new features and all new bugs with those. You could try other major/minor kernel versions to see if the issue still exists. E.g. 6.2. If there's no easy way to do this, you might want to consider trying a non-rolling distro that keeps the kernel versions stable for a long time till another major version is sufficiently tested and fixed. Debian and Ubuntu do this. If you're curious whether the same bug exists in the latest Debian or Ubuntu, you could boot a live USB, do a shutdown and watch if you see this error. If there's no error, then you could install and use it. You could also try to install the same version of the kernel as the one in the live USB on Arch if there's a good way to do that. Unfortunately the result might not be identical since kernels in Debian are patched with fixes from newer versions. Nothing steps you from trying though.
