My touch controllers no longer vibrate in Beat Saber

edited October 2018 in Oculus Rift S and Rift
I just changed out the batteries on my controllers, and as of the first use through Beat Saber I either get no vibration at all or a feeble single bump about 4 seconds after it should have happened. I am very concerned that there is something wrong with the internals of the controller. I havent dropped them or anything rough at all, so I feel it has something to do with changing the battery. Has anyone else had this problem, and/or does anyone know how to fix it? Please?

EDIT: I have found a solution that worked for me: I switched which USB port my headset was plugged in to. Maybe it was a bandwidth problem, maybe just bad port drivers, who knows. But switching USB ports fixed it.

    This happens JUST in Beat Saber?  I had that happen as well but ONLY in Beat Saber.

    Yeah it only happens in beat saber so far. Other games seem to work fine.

    Then you should probably change your post title to ........

    I've been experiencing this since transferring my Rift onto a new PC. Single blocks in Beat Saber give very weak feedback. Hitting two blocks at the same time gives some feedback half a second after hitting them. Touching both sabers together doesn't produce a constant buzz like it used to. Putting one saber into a wall doesn't give any feedback, putting both in gives a period of feedback about half a second later.

    Had a similar problem on my old PC following a Windows reinstall, but it went away for no apparent reason.

    Other games play fine, though I notice in VRChat when dropping an object with one hand near my other hand, both controllers will give feedback after (again) half a second or so.

    OP here, I solved this problem by switching which USB ports everything was plugged in to. Primarily the headset USB. I've heard this might not work for some people. Give it a shot.

    I had the same problem. Try repairing the touch controllers, it worked for me :)

    After updating to v. 1.2.0 my touch controllers do not vibrate when cutting blocks or when the sabers are crossing. However, the vibration is working fine in the selection menu. So sad. Have tried so many things but without luck:

    - uninstalling/reinstalling
    - deleting folder before uninstalling
    - pairing controllers
    - changing batteries
    - setup the entire device

    I'm having the same issue, but I heard that beat saber works best when plugged into a USB 3.0 port (most people say swapping to them usually fixes the problem) I would've tested this but my motherboard only has 2.0 and 3.1. The 3.1 is better than the 2.0 but not by much in terms of the vibrations. The 2.0 barely registers anything and 3.1 cuts out about 70% of the time losing its function as the blocks become more frequent. I'm not sure if you can potentially downgrade a 3.1 for this or something but I think a 3.0 PCIe card might do the trick.

    Had the same issue. Motherboard had only USB 2.0, 3.1, 3.2, nothing worked properly. Bought a 3.0 PCIe card, now it works fine. Never thought, that downgrading might do the trick.
