Razer Barracuda X turning off while charging

The headset keeps turning off while charging.
I've been using it for about two years, and it's never happened before.
However, for the past week, when I turn on the power while charging, the power turns off again within a minute.
If you use it with the charging cable removed after charging it, it will operate normally again.
I was able to confirm that the power was turned off only if I used it during charging.
Is it just me?

Hi zinu0105,

 

The Razer Barracuda X is designed to power off when connected to a charger, making it difficult to use while charging. To fix this, try disabling Auto Standby in the Razer Audio app, plugging into a wall brick instead of a PC, or using a  Razer Audio App’s specific wake-up sequence (power on while plugged in). If it’s still the same, then PM me your Razer headset’s SN: (Follow steps here: https://mysupport.razer.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/548/~/how-to-find-the-serial%2C-product%2C-or-part-number-on-a-razer-device) and link of your receipt in a PDF format: (Save the shareable files via any online drive account listed here: https://mysupport.razer.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/4011?_ga=2.197232171.544708261.1744067200-1885068520.1744067200&_gl=1*vo487o*_ga_3TRK53PM75*MTc0NDA2NzE5OS4xLjEuMTc0NDA2NzM0My4yNC4wLjA).
