Thank you for the extra details. Using Skia Vulkan part allows to use GPU
instead of CPU so it accelerates some treatment in LO.
Skia Raster uses CPU.
Now in your case it seems there's some bug on one of these:
- the graphic driver
- Skia lib
- LO use of Skia
so for the moment, it's perhaps better you disable Skia.

Concerning your question about how to switch towards the Nvidia GPU instead of
the integrated Intel GPU, I found this thread:
https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/libreoffice-writer-using-integrated-gpu-instead-of-dedicated-after-monitor-change/102614/6
where someone proposes this workaround:
1) Navigate to Tools > Options > LibreOffice > View.
2) Check the box labeled “Force Skia software rendering”.

Since I don't have this pb, I can't test myself this workaround but you may
give it a try.
Of course, it's not a solution.
