Lots of unexplained WiFi traffic recently

The WiFi indicator on my laptop has been flashing about 90% of the uptime on my laptop at idle. It didn't used to be nearly this bad. It's to the point where I wonder if malware is the culprit.

I got a capture from Wireshark. Could someone more knowledgable than me please look at the feed and let me know if anything looks suspicious for an idle system.

I'm running Void Linux w/i3WM and the only thing I could think would be generating frequent network traffic is sshd. But even with that disabled it's still really bad.
