Ir remote stops working when switching to gradient effects

Hey guys I’m having issues with integrating an IR 44 key remote with a KY-022 IR sensor into my project.
Every key works fine while the effect is on “Solid” but when I switch to an effect such as “android” with a preset with the remote diy key or through the app the IR remote stops working and is their for stuck on the effect until I switch back to a solid effect through the app.

I found some others that have encountered the same issue and remedied it by changing pins but I tried changing to every other available pin (including pins being used by the microphone) on my dig quad but I still encounter the same issue or the pin doesn’t work for the IR sensor. Pin q4/gpio32 is the pin I’m currently using for the IR sensor.

I’m hoping one of you guys can help me navigate this issue

Some info about my project:

Controller: Dig Quad v3

Software: 0.14.0 with audio reactive usermod

Led: FCOB 24v- 2 matrix with 568 LEDs on led pin 1 and 2

Pins q1, q2, and q3 are currently being used for the microphone
