Is there a way to get a log of added or removed roles for a member?

I have used this code for a long time to achieve this until suddenly I encountered an error when a member is not in the cache. When the guildMemberUpdate event occurs, it logs that all roles the member already had have been added again.

export default async (client, oldMember, newMember) => {
    // Get roles of the oldMember from the cache (not ideal but necessary if no other option)
        const oldRolesIds = oldMember.roles.cache.map((role) => role.id);

        // Get roles of the newMember from the cache (not ideal but necessary if no other option)
        const newRolesIds = newMember.roles.cache.map((role) => role.id);

        // Compare the length of old and new roles
        if (oldRolesIds.length !== newRolesIds.length) {
            // Log the differences in roles if there is a change
            await sendLogs(client, `\`\`\`\nOld roles: [ ${oldRolesIds.join(", ")} ]\nNew roles: [ ${newRolesIds.join(", ")} ]\n\`\`\``);
        }
    } catch (error) {
        // Log any errors that occur during processing
        console.error(`Error processing guildMemberUpdate: ${error}`);
    }
};

export default async (client, oldMember, newMember) => {
    // Get roles of the oldMember from the cache (not ideal but necessary if no other option)
        const oldRolesIds = oldMember.roles.cache.map((role) => role.id);

        // Get roles of the newMember from the cache (not ideal but necessary if no other option)
        const newRolesIds = newMember.roles.cache.map((role) => role.id);

        // Compare the length of old and new roles
        if (oldRolesIds.length !== newRolesIds.length) {
            // Log the differences in roles if there is a change
            await sendLogs(client, `\`\`\`\nOld roles: [ ${oldRolesIds.join(", ")} ]\nNew roles: [ ${newRolesIds.join(", ")} ]\n\`\`\``);
        }
    } catch (error) {
        // Log any errors that occur during processing
        console.error(`Error processing guildMemberUpdate: ${error}`);
    }
};

Here is an example of the logs with this code, showing this issue:

Old roles: [ 418586876899885056 ]
New roles: [ 807991856868229200, 807994083204792380, 807991313542676520, 874292095840563280, 807991901932224552, 873953249055621172, 807991887055028266, 418586876899885056 ]

Old roles: [ 418586876899885056 ]
New roles: [ 807991856868229200, 807994083204792380, 807991313542676520, 874292095840563280, 807991901932224552, 873953249055621172, 807991887055028266, 418586876899885056 ]

where 418586876899885056 is the ID of the server (guild).

You can fetch it from audit log

documentation suggestion for @XtoManuel: :method: Guild#fetchAuditLogs() @14.15.3 Fetches audit logs for this guild.

// Output audit log entries
guild.fetchAuditLogs()
  .then(audit => console.log(audit.entries.first()))
  .catch(console.error);

// Output audit log entries
guild.fetchAuditLogs()
  .then(audit => console.log(audit.entries.first()))
  .catch(console.error);

Discord.js version: 14.14.1 I have tried using Audit Logs, but the roles I want to log are primarily roles that are assigned automatically by Discord, such as the server Booster role, and roles from streaming or video platform subscriptions (Twitch/YouTube). These roles are not recorded in the Audit Logs.
