Surface slabs can be a bit tricky to converge, adding more vacuum normally
makes it harder.

Your smearing is very small, it may cause states to jump in and out of the
Fermi (smeared) surface, making convergence unstable. You coudl also try to
set mixing_mode="local-TF" in &electrons, it helps sometimes.
