Help  Trying to render bubbly foam

Ah, okay. I'd missed the Generate button.  However, after increasing the Capacity and clicking Generate, I get the following error, and the Emitter appears unaffected:

NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object

Ahhh, yes.  I'm using URP, so naturally it's the render feature I need to adjust.  Makes sense!

One more issue:  The particles are rendered with hard outlines, like so:

   

In order to soften those (as seen in the video in my original post) I rendered the particles with a separate camera, to a RenderTexture, and then layered that over the scene with an blur effect in a shader I made.  Unfortunately, using that technique means the foam is rendered without regard for other objects in the scene, as you can see above.  So, is there any way to blur/soften/reduce those hard edges?
