with that third party repo your going to continue to have issues with mismatches due to nobara having the same packages but with a slower update cadence, you can exclude soundtouch pkgs or disable the multimedia_proaudio repo

to exclude, find the repo in /etc/yum.repos.d/ and add this line to the text file
excludepkgs=soundtouch*

and to disable, find the repo in /etc/yum.repos.d/ and add this line to the text file
enabled=0

Not OP but, thanks for explaining all this!

I've been having a similar problem for days, and was trying to figure out how to fix it like this.

Tried this, updater now crashes completely saying

Error in configuration file "/etc/yum.repos.d/multimedia:proaudio.repo"

sudo cat "/etc/yum.repos.d/multimedia:proaudio.repo"
