Title:
  erratic refresh rate after upgrading from 535 to 545 driver

Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-545 package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  [description]
  After upgrading my nvidia drivers from 535 to 545 and restarting my machine, 
I noticed that my mouse movement was less smooth than usual (my monitor is 
144Hz) and even felt laggy at times. After double checking that my screen 
refresh rate was set to 144Hz in the plasma display configuration in settings I 
realized that my mouse would sometimes feel smooth and other times feel laggy 
again (sub 60Hz maybe even). The pattern was somewhat random but it would 
switch from a high refresh late to a lower one quite often. Dragging a window 
around the screen would also yield the same effect, sometimes it feels smooth 
other times its much laggier.
  After looking around I found a post on nvidia's forums describing the same 
issues I was having: 
https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/545-driver-desktop-framerate-alternates-between-120-and-60-fps/271602

  Nvidia has also acknowledge this issue and was able to reproduce it 
internally, however most if not all the users on this thread are reporting the 
issue while running X11, while for my part the issue is also happening on 
wayland and is not limited to X11.
  I should also note that I am only using the external monitor and have my 
laptop lid closed but I also tried having both screens running and the issue 
still remains

  [system]
  Dell XPS 17 9720, intel core i9 12900HK, RTX 3060 6GB + intel iris Xe
  Kubuntu 23.10 using wayland with plasma 5.27.8
  nvidia driver: 545.29.02 (proprietary).
  uname -r: 6.5.0-10-generic
  Monitor: Cooler Master GM27-FQSA (connected to the laptop using the usb-c to 
HDMI adapter provided by Dell with the laptop)
