How do i Disable efficiency mode for Discord

Efficiency mode is killing Discord. I can play decently demanding games, yet i cant voice call properly. Windows says there is a subprocesses of Discord that is running efficiency mode. When I turn it off Discord runs fine, then it turns on automatically after a few seconds.

I have:

There are no settings to turn off efficiency mode system wide and I don't want it. I have the "Ask me before turning on efficiency mode" option selected but I never got a dialog or asked.

How do I turn this off? It is incredibly frustrating.

 

Automatically activates efficiency mode

I got a new PC like 3 months ago, it has Windows 11 and I disabled efficiency mode on apps that I often use and it's been working absolutely wonderful the whole time but it's been messing with me today, everytime I minimize the apps, they go in efficiency mode and I need it to be disabled for notifications or when I'm in a call because it automatically leaves the call if it's in efficiency mode but no matter how many times I turn it off, it turns back on when minimized on every single app. I don't know what to do, I have Googled for about 2 hours and nobody seem to have the same problem.
