If the player is added/removed from the tree, something internally is leaking and it can cause the animation to jank and then the page to crash.

See this sandbox: https://codesandbox.io/s/elated-tdd-pvhkf?file=/src/App.tsx

Click the toggle button once. Everything works and the animation shows. Click it twice and it might be a bit slower. 3-4+ times (at least on my computer) it slows to a crawl and the page becomes unresponsive.
