ACF v5.8.9 bundles jquery? Error w LayerSlider 6.11.1

Greetings…I have narrowed down the plugin clash to ACF v5.8.9/ACF:Options Page v2.1.0/ACF:Repeater Field and LayerSlider 6.11.1 which, when all four plugins are activated I receive the following error:

LayerSlider: Multiple jQuery issue<br />
It looks like that another plugin or your theme loads an extra copy of the jQuery library causing problems for LayerSlider to show your sliders. Please navigate from your WordPress admin sidebar to LayerSlider -> Options -> Advanced and enable the “Include scripts in the footer” option.

I have tried all the various options available in LayerSlider that address jQuery and script loading, but none of the options will resolve the issue.

Non-related searches point to the potential of multiple versions or instances of jquery being loaded (as contained in the error above) and I am seeing in Dev Tools that there are both multiple instances but also multiple versions being loaded.

Is this something you’ve run into in the past, or, is there a way to configure your plugin to become compatible with LayerSlider?
