ASS subtitles rendering behind video - pfpchanger - 2025-11-03

To preface, I have installed version 10.10.7 via Docker, and am running it on a PC running Linux Mint 22.1 (where the files I am using are also stored). I noticed that while watching some shows that the subtitles are not rendered in front of the video, rather behind it, and the shows which this happened with had ASS subtitles. This does not happen with SRT subtitles, nor DVD or BluRay subtitles.

Here is an example of what I am referring to:
   

Most of it isn't visible. The only parts (the far left) which are is due to the show being 4:3 rather than 16:9 (shows which are 16:9 show no subtitles). Is there any way to fix this?
