Yes, lots of palpitations. To the point where I wore a monitor for a few days so that my cardiologist could evaluate.
With hyperaldosteronism, because your body retains elevated levels of sodium, it dumps potassium. The low potassiums is probably the main cause of the palpitations.
Low potassium is a marker for hyperaldosteronism.

I should really check for hyperaldosteronism which I have always suspected but like you was always steered towards bp medication and got eye rolls if I tried to engage in a educated conversation about the topic.
