After disconnecting once, audio starts audibly buffering

Here is part of my /play command:

const connection = joinVoiceChannel({
    channelId: interaction.member.voice.channelId,
    guildId: interaction.guildId,
    adapterCreator: interaction.member.voice.channel.guild.voiceAdapterCreator,
  });

  const resource = createAudioResource("an mp3 live link", {
    inlineVolume: true,
  });

  const player = createAudioPlayer();

  connection.subscribe(player);
  player.play(resource);

  player.on("stateChange", async (oldState: any, newState: any) => {
    log(`AudioPlayer: ${oldState.status} -> ${newState.status}`, "debug");

    switch (newState.status) {
      case AudioPlayerStatus.Idle:
        log("The player has become idle.", "debug");
        const resource = createAudioResource("an mp3 live link", {
          inlineVolume: true,
        });
        player.play(resource);
        break;
      case AudioPlayerStatus.AutoPaused:
        try {
          await Promise.race([
            entersState(player, AudioPlayerStatus.Idle, 2_000),
            entersState(player, AudioPlayerStatus.Buffering, 2_000),
            entersState(player, AudioPlayerStatus.Playing, 2_000),
          ]);
        } catch {
          connection.disconnect();
        }
        break;
    }
  });

  connection.on("stateChange", async (oldState: any, newState: any) => {
    log(`VoiceConnection: ${oldState.status} -> ${newState.status}`, "debug");

    switch (newState.status) {
      case VoiceConnectionStatus.Disconnected:
        try {
          await Promise.race([
            entersState(connection, VoiceConnectionStatus.Signalling, 2_000),
            entersState(connection, VoiceConnectionStatus.Connecting, 2_000),
          ]);
        } catch (error) {
          connection.destroy();
        }
        break;
      case VoiceConnectionStatus.Destroyed:
        player.stop();
        break;
    }
  });

const connection = joinVoiceChannel({
    channelId: interaction.member.voice.channelId,
    guildId: interaction.guildId,
    adapterCreator: interaction.member.voice.channel.guild.voiceAdapterCreator,
  });

  const resource = createAudioResource("an mp3 live link", {
    inlineVolume: true,
  });

  const player = createAudioPlayer();

  connection.subscribe(player);
  player.play(resource);

  player.on("stateChange", async (oldState: any, newState: any) => {
    log(`AudioPlayer: ${oldState.status} -> ${newState.status}`, "debug");

    switch (newState.status) {
      case AudioPlayerStatus.Idle:
        log("The player has become idle.", "debug");
        const resource = createAudioResource("an mp3 live link", {
          inlineVolume: true,
        });
        player.play(resource);
        break;
      case AudioPlayerStatus.AutoPaused:
        try {
          await Promise.race([
            entersState(player, AudioPlayerStatus.Idle, 2_000),
            entersState(player, AudioPlayerStatus.Buffering, 2_000),
            entersState(player, AudioPlayerStatus.Playing, 2_000),
          ]);
        } catch {
          connection.disconnect();
        }
        break;
    }
  });

  connection.on("stateChange", async (oldState: any, newState: any) => {
    log(`VoiceConnection: ${oldState.status} -> ${newState.status}`, "debug");

    switch (newState.status) {
      case VoiceConnectionStatus.Disconnected:
        try {
          await Promise.race([
            entersState(connection, VoiceConnectionStatus.Signalling, 2_000),
            entersState(connection, VoiceConnectionStatus.Connecting, 2_000),
          ]);
        } catch (error) {
          connection.destroy();
        }
        break;
      case VoiceConnectionStatus.Destroyed:
        player.stop();
        break;
    }
  });

Now, this works flawlessly. But, when I initiate a connection.disconnect() - in a seperate command - it does indeed leave the voice channel. But when I run /play again, while it does play, it is very buffery. I believe what is happening is the old player hasn't been destroyed, and my computer is trying to play 2 streams?

Maybe becasue it is a streamed mp3? I still think the connection is not being destroyed, and stays listening to the mp3 in memory or something...

shouldnt matter but i have no idea what the issue is if you turn off inlinevolume does anything change?

I believe what is happening is the old player hasn't been destroyed, and my computer is trying to play 2 streams? Maybe not?

the connection can only listen to one player and it prepares packets by reading the stream from the player, just to explain that "shouldnt matter" msg above there's no way i can think of that it would be reading from two players at once

No clue what is happening, still doing it.
