    Hyperx cloud ii headset audio cuts off

    I love these headphones, but every now and then I'll lose all audio. It just stops, and I have to unplug the headphones (usb) and the audio comes back. Then if I plug them back in, it'll be fine for a while, but randomly, maybe 3 seconds, maybe 3 hours, it'll happen again. Why is this happening?

    HyperX Cloud II 7.1

    Every time I turn on my PC I always have to turn on my 7.1 on the USB. It turns off by itself when I turn my PC and its kind of getting annoying. Does anybody else have to turn it one every time you turn on the computer? Is my headset defective?
