Screen flickering with ASUS TUF GAMING A15 laptop (FX506IV)

Hi, I'm currently experiencing a problem with the amdgpu driver that causes the screen to flicker (turn off and back on quickly) at a regular interval. This also occurs with the modesetting driver. Turning the screen off and back on again using xset dpms force off fixes the issue, but the screen can start flickering again if it turns off and back on again afterwards (using xset dpms force off or due to inactivity). Also, I get the following error in dmesg, whenever i use xset dpms force off to turn the screen off and back on again, or the screen turns off and back on again due to inactivity:

[ 2257.034515] [drm:dpcd_set_source_specific_data [amdgpu]] *ERROR* Error in DP aux read transaction, not writing source specific data
[ 2257.141722] [drm:mod_hdcp_add_display_to_topology [amdgpu]] *ERROR* Failed to add display topology, DTM TA is not initialized.
[ 2257.141726] [drm] [Link 0] WARNING MOD_HDCP_STATUS_FAILURE IN STATE HDCP_UNINITIALIZED STAY COUNT 0

Here is my Xorg.0.log log file: https://pastebin.com/jDtEqj74

Here is my dmesg log: https://pastebin.com/E074CSsv

In addition, here is a recording of the flickering: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1IIpwEVYmNsdKPkiB2042OZ7cvvJYqjob/view?usp=sharing
