Logic X: Playback randomly stopping and jumping back to cycle start

Hi,

I've got an issue where playback is stopping randomly and starting again. When I have a loop/cycle running it throws me back to the start when I dont have loop/cycle on it stutters as playback stops and starts again.

Mac Pro (Late 2013)

3.7 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon E5

16 GB 1866 MHz DDR3

OWC Aura Pro X2

Monterey 12.6.1

Logic X 10.7.6

The issue still occurs in a fresh project with plugins deactivated.

The issue still occurs after bypassing external instruments

The issue still occurs when I disconnect my keyboard (I thought it might be a busted space bar)

Please help this is a nightmare as it prevents me from be able to record and is massively disrupting to work flow!
