MODERATORS
I also experience audio dropouts. Not very common, but they do happen.
There is inherently more "fiddling" with the Deck overall compared to the Switch, which I believe is unavoidable. You aren't playing games designed only to run on one locked down device. You are running games designed to run on PCs of just about any era. Upside, you could be running emulators, games or programs from sources other than Steam, even a Word Processor. Downside, it differs require a little more knowledge and fiddling.
Having said that, if you stick to game mode and games rated as great on the Steam Deck through Steam, your experience will come very close to the Switch for ease of use, with an arguably larger library.
