Strange that it doesn’t work in the usb type C although I have to admit it I only use the type A with supplied adaptor as its easier to get to and I need to disconnect ever night as I have a cable chewing cat. (Protective sheath needed for that problem but also adds a bit of rigidity to the cable).
I have an Alienware Ryzen R10 and the only usb port that ever worked was the front top type A. All others either did nothing or gave one of the WMR errors. Then after 3-5 weeks it would stop with the front one probably due to a bit of wear on the cable pushed it over the threshold of working or not.
With the rev 2 cable I can use any of the types As with the HP supplied adaptor. I will try the type C later. But so far absolutely none of the previous issues, sound loss, blue screen or WMR errors. Also think the cable is slightly more flexible than the old one.
