its deceiving. Sounded like an update, but this was in addition:
If you're using Oculus Rift S and experiencing black screen and/or cable enumeration issues, please try opting into the latest PTC (https://support.oculus.com/200468603765391/) build of the Oculus software. We've included updates that should help.
Is this the only update?
This didn't fix the black screen for me. After applying the firmware, the headset worked flawlessly. I could shut down Oculus and restart it and it worked. However, after a reboot, the black screen came back. Also the white flashes and stuttering seem to happen more frequently. Rebooting Oculus takes 3 times to get the screen back.
Seems passthrough is an issue. If I use my USB 3.0 card, I get snow.
Move it to the motherboard USB and passthrough works.
USB powersave is off.
Tracking is now worse with obvious studders
I'm purchasing a USB 3 to Type C adapter to plug directly into my RTX2080 to see if that corrects any of the issues.
I have the latest windows 10 updates and Nvidia drivers.

Does this update do anything for the tracking? I still can't use the Rift S because the controllers lock in place minutes after starting the software. They still rotate, the buttons still work, but they don't move.

After updating to 1.38 I am getting some stuttering when moving my head around. Going back to 1.37 for the moment.

I'm getting the same stuttering with this update as well.

I have had my rift s for a week now its my first vr headset and for the most part when it is working it is very enjoyable and I love it BUT!!! I have been experiencing issues just as what is plastered all over these forums as of late such as the black screen issues randomly which seem for myself to be only caused by loud noises in game or actions such as hitting hands together in pokerstars vr or bigscreen etc. I seem to have stopped these black screens from happening by plugging in my own headphones into the rift s headset and strangely this does the trick ???
I also do experience the white flashes of static light from time to time and thought this was due to my USB 3.0 ports not having a dedicated power supply so I purchased the Oculus recommended Inateck USB 3.0 PCI express card to try remedy this but black screens do still seem to happen along with the static if I have no headphones plugged into the headset which makes me believe the black screens are something to do with the audio drivers/speaker hardware.Just to note I have had no problems with sensors or them not setting up correctly, although annoyingly sometimes after a black screen event I may have to reset up all the oculus guardian boundary's!!!!!!!...annoying as hell.
I will try this update tonight to see if I still get black screens with no headphones plugged in and update on this thread of my findings.Fingers crossed.
