[10.11.6] Connection to the nvidia graphics card unexpectedly lost

[The Black Reverand]

Hello,

I have an home made serveur with OMV 7.7.24

My Jellyfin work on Docker and is protected by SWAG for public usage.

Code:

services:
  jellyfin:
    container_name: jellyfin
    hostname: jellyfin
    image: jellyfin/jellyfin:10.11.6
    restart: unless-stopped
    networks:
      internal_network:
        ipv4_address: 172.200.0.11
    ports:
      - 8096:8096
    volumes:
      - CHANGE_TO_COMPOSE_DATA_PATH/jellyfin_config:/config
      - CHANGE_TO_COMPOSE_DATA_PATH/jellyfin_cache:/cache
      - CHANGE_TO_COMPOSE_DATA_PATH/swag_config/etc/letsencrypt/live/my_domain.fr:/certificat:ro
      - /srv/mergerfs/pool_Videos/BRRip:/BRRip:ro
      - /srv/mergerfs/pool_Videos/Divx:/Divx:ro
      - /srv/mergerfs/pool_Videos/Series:/Series:ro
      - /srv/mergerfs/pool_Videos/Concerts:/Concerts:ro

      - /srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-fd3f5eb7-a8f5-4048-be0e-88848bc5478e/Musiques:/Musiques:ro
    environment:
      - NVIDIA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=all
      - NVIDIA_DRIVER_CAPABILITIES=all
    gpus: all

networks:
  internal_network:
    external: true

All work fine, I can read all movies with my Android TV but after time (some days) my graphics card (MSI GeForce RTX 4060 Ventus 2X Black 8G) is disconnect of Jellyfin.

For test the link between Jellyfin container and the graphics card I use 

Code:

docker exec -it jellyfin nvidia-smi

If disconnect I have an error, otherwise I have cards data
   

I had my transcodage configuration too.
   

In logs I can see this ==>   FFmpeg exited with code 187

For restore the link, I juste restart the container, and all work fine for few days.

Did I make a mistake?

Thanks for help and all work on Jellyfin
