Leds and screen flickering

When I select either x11 or xcb my leds flicker when sitting idle. When I switch over to usb capture the issue disappears. This is running on the latest stable LibreElec x86_64. When I change the refresh rate on x11 or xcb it seems to cause random flickering. The hardware i have is a ryzen 3600 on a asus b450-f with a gtx 960. I have wled on an esp8266. I am powering 193 ws2812b and the esp with a 5v laptop power adapter. I have tested the leds with another hyperion setup and they have worked fine there, so it must be something with the pc this is on. Hyperion is running on the same machine as libreelec, i used the script in the tutorials section on this site to install it. I can provide logs if needed.
