Razer Ripsaw HD Hangs (strange kind of HDMI magic happening)

Razer Ripsaw hangs when connected to a TV/av receiver using most HDMI cables.

The situation is as follows - I can use any cable to feed the input source, but the output to the TV only works with a few HDMI cables (I have quite a few and haven't tried them all, but the Nintendo Switch cable definitely works).

So if I connect ONLY the input source, for example, everything works fine (I can see in OBS). Ripsaw hangs up dead as soon as I plug in an HDMI out cable (unless it's a Nintendo Switch cable). Disconnecting and reconnecting the USB doesn't help. Turning off the output cable and disconnecting/connecting the USB helps.

The source is Nintendo Switch / Playstation 5, HDCP disabled. I've also turned off all smart device control over HDMI on the TV side and on game consoles - it didn't help.

All of the cables I use are quality, 2.0 and 2.1 versions, and work with all other devices (and as Ripsaw input cables too)

I don't seem to have this problem with the 4K monitor (I can double-check), but it is definitely there on both TVs (FullHD & 4K 120Hz)
