Hello.
My issue is that when I start up my PC, all connected USB devices also boot up, but the hub doesn't. I have to reconnect it for the hub to activate so my headset works.
I've tried updating everything and even used a different USB port on the hub. I checked my power plans but couldn't find anything.
Is the hub malfunctioning? Am I missing something?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

which usb hub is it? maybe update the firmware
update the BIOS of your motherboard
does the headset connect to it? the hub isn't connected.

It is a Nova pro wireless base station
It's fully updated. I will try to update my BIOS - haven't tried that yet.
The headset turns on my no signal, not before I unplug the base station and plug it back in - so it powers on.

Did you attempt to connect the headset and the station once more rather than reinserting the USB? Is the headset active during startup?

I changed the BIOS firmware, but it didn't make a difference.
Normally I turn on the headset when the hub starts - just tested a few times without success.
Re-pairing the headset also doesn't help. I've tried it, but it doesn't influence the HUB's power-on behavior.
