Brief description of the issue:
If i launch MSFS with my headset and PS5 controller connected via USB, then they have to stay connected via USB. For example today, i had my Headset connected via USB and my PS5 controller via Bluetooth. My PS5 controller ran out of battery and so disconnected, totally freezing the sim. If i disconnect the USB cable from my headset, same thing, it freezes. I have to return the hardware to its original state (so if the headset was connected via USB then i’d have to reconnect the USB cable). If i don’t restore the hardware to it’s original state, MSFS does not resume. Just tested and this includes my wireless mouse, so it’s not audio or graphics related.
