Just a thought... are you flying with the headset wired?

I only ask because I had similar issues which turned out to be the USB cable from headset to computer.  First time it happened, I thought "No way this is the culprit".  Boom, fixed.  Second time it started happening, I had a new cable on the way from Amazon immediately and it has been behaving ever since.  It would seem the cables definitely have a shelf life

In my biz, 90% of the time the issue is a cable/connector.

Many times cables will go bad within 3 inches of the connector.
This is usually because thats usually where the stress occurs because it’s usually bent there from cable weight OR the cable moves a lot when connected.

Fractures in the wire can build up to a break.

Vocal mic cable go first.

Usb connection can wear out. Again weight of the cable or movement start wearing in the female connection metals.

We don’t buy any molded cable. Because it gets used and wrapped up nightly we know we’ll have to chop the last 6” off and reinstall the connector.

An install where the stress of the cables is held up and fixed to a case wall…..last a long time.

New cable no joy.  It froze up on me before I could get my gear up.  It's not the game.  It has something to do with Meta, NVIDIA, or Windows and it only hates me apparently.  Last Friday I updated the NVIDIA drivers and updated the Windows patching.  I generally operate as an IT Pro from the bleeding edge so I got cut .  I like the new cable.  There are few upgrades from the one I bought a long time ago.  I guess I need to start ripping into rolling back updates.  Was hoping for Meta to update drivers but that has not happened.
