Describe the bug
When automatic updates are toggled on, the system basically locks up and becomes non-responsive to any input. I have to hold down the power button on the tower to do a hard restart of the machine. This is a custom built desktop PC with an AMD 7700x and a 7800XT GPU.
To be perfectly honest, I don't actually know 100% that it is automatic updates... but the cadence is about right. It seems to happen about once a week.
I have deactivated automatic updates and will run them manually.
What did you expect to happen?
I expected that the automatic updates would run in the background without taking over my machine and preventing anything else from happening during that time. I also expect that the machine does not lock up to the extent that I have to do a hardware restart.

I would be happy to provide some logs if someone could tell me where to look. The output of last-boot-logs was thousands of lines long and I'm not sure what I am looking for.
