I also have this issue. I suspect that it is logged on this line:

Waybar/src/modules/mpris/mpris.cpp

Line 570 in a90e275

spdlog::error("mpris[{}]: {}", info.name, error->message);

Is there any news ? I also have this problem and I'm afraid of battery impact

Since it's just logging, I doubt it has a significant impact on energy usage.
