I found my answer, it's a known steamdeck issue.  I got help on the qhimm discord.  Thanks all!

As of about a week ago, my game started hitching, and I'm not sure why.

It seems to occur when music changes (get on a chocobo/change scenes/etc.) or when music volume changes (go to menu, constantly in cave of gi descent.)

The hitch lasts 1-3 seconds, and is very annoying, but in the cave of gi descent it is virtually game breaking.

I -am- playing on a steam deck, and I did recently get an OS update (they happen a lot) but I don't believe it was correlated.  I also assume others would be having this issue if so. 

As for my setup, I can't remember everything I did to get it working on the steamdeck, but I do know that I'm using 7th heaven, and I'm playing with a handful of mods, including using new threat 2.0.  I've tried disabling mods and there isn't any one clear offender.  Leaving just New Threat enabled the issue still manifests, but turning on other mods, and disabling new threat seems to still cause the issue, so it's not as simple as just being new threat.

I'm very open to ideas here.

EDIT: Solved, known issue with steamdeck.  I got help on the qhimm discord.  Thanks all!

Okay so I have a weird issue that cropped up.

I was trying to add ESUI and a theme to my modded setup after ~150 happy hours on my steamdeck with New Threat 2.0 and the newest stable build of 7th heaven, when suddenly:

I noticed the game hitching on battle start/end, at moments during script scenes, and on music transitions.

I thought it was ESUI, so I removed it, no dice.  Eventually I get to just New Threat 2.0 and no other mods, issue persists.  I turn off New Threat 2.0, issue finally goes away! 

So, I try a new game just to see if there's been some artifact of a save corruption.  Nope, hitching continues.

I try revalidating my steam install of FF7 just in case.  No change.

Anyone have any ideas at this point?

The -only- things I can think of that have actually changed are

-Total mods downloaded to my local catalog (even though they're disabled)
-Steamdeck has recently updated the OS
-Order of mods has changed but again, all other mods are inactive.

--- NEW SYMPTOM: - It hitches EVERY FRAME in the Cave of Gi!

--- EDIT: Okay, not strictly a new threat issue, seems most mods are now causing this.  wtf?  could be due to the OS update.  It's definitely an issue with the music.
