AMD RX 7600 Crash on Kernel 6.5 on boot with *ERROR* Error waiting for INBOX0 HW Lock Ack

Brief summary of the problem:

Using dual screen on a AMD RX 7000 series crashes the entire system.

On boot, when the OS arrives at the graphical component (SDDM on XOrg), it produces a bunch of the following error

[drm:dc_dmub_srv_wait_for_inbox0_ack [amdgpu]] *ERROR* Error waiting for INBOX0 HW Lock Ack

SDDM would show up, but only on my second, smaller, display. If I login through SDDM the GPU would crash resulting in a black screen and no desktop showing up. The full dmesg can be found here https://pastebin.com/2tF18S5U

I tested kernel 6.5.3 and 6.5.5 and both exhibit the errors and crash.

In Kernel 6.4.16 it won't crash and that error is gone. SDDM would show up on both displays and login is possible. It does however show the following errors on dmesg occasionally on 6.4.16

[ 2168.817064] amdgpu 0000:03:00.0: amdgpu: SMU: I'm not done with your previous command: SMN_C2PMSG_66:0x00000029 SMN_C2PMSG_82:0x00000000

Also tested with 6.1.53, and no crash there either.
