For some reason I have to reboot my Macbook Pro M2 to get gradle to work again

I can work for hours just fine without any issues, then all of the sudden gradle will start getting stuck, eventually it will give this error:

* What went wrong:
Gradle could not start your build.

I've tried the suggestions of running ./gradlew --stop and rm /Users/myname/.gradle/caches/journal-1/journal-1.lock but it won't help. I've even deleted the entire cache.

The only thing that helps is rebooting the Macbook Pro M2. I've been having this issue several days now.

Any idea what it might be?

I'm using com.android.tools.build:gradle:8.0.2 on Android Studio Flamingo.
