Audio Issue with left deck but not right deck after 4.5 hours of DJing

I'm using Traktor S4 MK III with Traktor 3.5.(latest can't remember). Windows 11.

I was the only DJ for an event, towards the end of the event, tracks sounded weird if I played them on the left deck, but if I moved the track to the right deck, it was fine. There were no FX, filter or eq currently running on either deck. I was using the ASIO drivers. I increased the buffer to the max to see if that would help, it did not. Restarting was not option because I was the only DJ.

What happened? and how do I prevent this from happening again.

It doesn't sound like a driver issue if one deck plays correctly and the other doesn't, if it was a driver issue, both decks should be affected.

    If have no clue what happened and therefore I don't have any hints how to prevent this. As this issue occured after 4.5 hours once it is guessing what may have caused this. I don't expect that you have tried to reproduce this issue and if it occurs again if you are 4.5 hours into spinning tracks - and if this occurs always after 4.5 hours. What exactly means sounded weird? Wrong pitch? Bass, Mids, His missing? Or too much?

    But I am wondering why you are using Traktor Pro 3.5.x? Last version of TP3 was 3.11.1.

    My mistake, I am running 3.11.1
    I've dj'd a few times since this happened without the issue happening again, but I have a five hour wedding coming up into two days. I'm running a 3 hour test tonight.

    The best explanation I can give for the sound would be a bit underwater. Garbled a bit. It didn't sound filtered or eq'd, nor was it stuttering.
