Quest 3 controllers disconnect and won't reconnect until restarting the whole system. (yiffit.net)

Just curious if anyone else with a Quest 3 (or even 2 I guess) is having this issue. Seems to have only started after v68 dropped. Is there a fix? The patch notes said I should be able to handle the connection from the system menu, but there's nothing to force them back on or turn them off; it's the same shit that's been in there since I got the thing.

I have been having this problem with my Q3 as well. For me, it’s only when I leave the controllers on the table for a few minutes, such as when I’m watching a movie. The controllers disconnect and then will not reconnect at all unless I remove and replace the AA battery. The battery is making good contact in the cage, and the controllers never cut out when in use. I also have hand tracking fully disabled.

Have you had any luck fixing this problem? It’s driving me crazy, and today is my last day to return this headset. I didn’t have this problem a week ago, so I feel like it’s a software thing.

I’ve had a similar issue with Q3 and the pro controllers (the same thing happened with the Q3 controllers as well). The reset view bottom will work but nothing else. Restarting fixes it but my current work-around it to put the controllers down and what for hand tracking to start. Then I can pick up the controllers press some buttons and they’re back. It’s been an issue for many versions now.
