Anyone found a fix for this besides resetting the usb connection? It'll fails again each time.

Tried playing the forest and they said my microphone was horrible - I did a test call on skype and I couldn't hear anything I was saying even though it's turned up to 100 percent

Any progress on this issue?? Very annoying, and seeing so many people having this problem for months, and no solution. Come on Oculus!!

The fixes are all hardware apparently, they had to get theirs RMA'd, I just went with an external mic, not the solution I'd hoped for, but nothing I can do about it

Same here, I went with a USB desktop mic as my Rift S Mic was so unreliable with constant drop outs, the Rift S mic is a piece of crap apparently , at least it was for me and obviously many others.
