Well it appears I found a solution. I'm still not sure why my backtrace isn't working (I need it for another bug I'm having with intel driver but it's not functioning the way it should). Anyways I removed pulse and only used ALSA and that worked great other than my mic quality being terrible, which wasn't going to work because I use my computer as my phone. I then reinstalled pulse and added a .asoundrc:
pcm.!default { type hw card 0 device 3 } Device obviously referencing my HDMI, I watched a full movie last night with no cutting out so perhaps this is good enough.
