Sennheiser PC37X randomly goes bad after disconnecting the cable ?
Greetings, Yesterday I was using my headset like normal with my macbook, just listening to music and on a call with people like usual, and the headset was perfectly fine. The stock wire that came with the headset is extremely long and yesterday it annoyed me very much that it kept getting tangled with itself, so I decided to see if the cable is replaceable. I pulled out the cable from the headset and saw the adapter, and looked online for a replacement. Upon plugging it back in, the audio sounded extremely muffled and washed out. Im not sure what I did wrong to make it mess up like that as I've always taken good care of it, ive had it for about 2 years and its always just been chilling on my desk, but anywho I thought the cable just went bad and ordered a replacement.

Signal path: uverse cable box hdmi to TV, TV Toslink to MX3, MX3 to Dayton Audio MK402 speakers via 16 awg speaker cable.
I know my Toslink cable and TV is good because the past few months it's been connected to speakers with built in amp+DAC via Toslink and sometimes to a sennheiser wireless headphone receiver via Toslink with no issues.
Edit: left the cable box, TV, and MX3 off for ~1 hour and now it's working normal. No idea why though. Previously I had unplugged and re-plugged the Toslink multiple times and power cycled everything multiple times. Hope it keeps working normally.
