Connection to power adapter is very flimsy

Connection to power adapter is very flimsy

I've had my Index since 2021 and the only prevalent issue I've had with it is how flimsy this part of the cord is, where the trident connects to the power adapter. If I so much as tap this thing, the headset's power is cut off entirely. Sometimes it will come back after a few seconds, but frequently I will need to jostle it before the power is restored, and often it will just get cut off again after i let go of it. It gets really annoying when I need to manage the cables on the back of my pc for any reason.

The only solution I have is to just keep the cord as far back enough so that it does not get moved at all while I'm playing. I've tried securing the connection with tape, but to no avail.

I am not sure why it is like this, whether something inside one of the connectors is messed up or maybe the connectors I got were not properly... "fitted" I guess (it does come apart and twist without much force, anyways).

If anyone else has had this issue and can offer a more effective solution, whether it be simply getting a replacement adapter or whatever else, it would be much appreciated.
