Given that $\left\{a_{n}\right\}$ is an arithmetic sequence with a nonzero common difference and $\left\{b_{n}\right\}$ is a geometric sequence where $a_{1}=3, b_{1}=1, a_{2}=b_{2}, 3a_{5}=b_{3}$, and there exist constants $\alpha$ and $\beta$ such that for every positive integer $n$, $a_{n} = \log_{\alpha} b_{n} + \beta$, find the value of $\alpha + \beta$.
