Is USB-C reliable with Acer Swift 3? and what should I not connect to creating music?

I have a large screen and memory. Run on 60 Hz, the screen. Some time ago my USB Hub connected became hot. So did my Acer. I found no problems with tests and diagnosis. Today something happened, my USB hub was connecting earphones(headphones) and a microphone. It sparkeled in the earphones and the hub closed. No message. The sound volumes have been changed down in my system, what I do not like(Windows 11 Home updated). The earphones don't seem to function and I guess I have to check my computer and the hub, probably also my headphones. The Acer laptop do not get hot anymore and no problem with the battery from tests. What new hub do you recommend and what should I not connect to Swift 3 USB-C creating music?

Acer probably knows whom I am since before. I think that we adjusted that issue once, but I asked: Will it work out with a large screen? Is the power in too close? Can USB have built-in lights? How much can be connected? a s o

I connected the USC Hub again. The microphone respond with red light(on) on three large USB.

I know them too, that company. I asked them to try your stuff too. I have no idea if they did.

Should I try to connect anything more? Phone, Headphones, USB power-bank…

And a camera? Maybe I should get some test in the store anyway.

We had Blizter on 60 degrees in Sweden. Two lava-blobs in Kvarken and Bergen…

Hope not many have that problem now.

Yes. I am using my stuff for also sinkhole picking. Blue Sky Auto.

I would like to have a diagnose for that if possible.

I have over 20k warnings on checking log.

All else seem fine, but not the hub.

Among warnings FAULT/ERROR reported.

Well, could be bad luck. Fabrication defect. Or I have a lava-strobe up in the house somehow had?

Try a hub with external power source.

Sounds as if there is an issue with the hub. Screen size should have nothing to do with the power draw on the USB-C port, same with audio components. Typically if the hub is trying to draw more power than the port can provide it's due to an external drive or an internal short in the hub.

I also have not tried audio plug.I tried tera, charging earphones and a powerbank before.

Swift 1 ok with that.

Swift one a Trust hub. Swift 3 a Sandstorm hub, but USB-C. I use two for mouse and keyboard(also charge). That is reason. Then I have to use musical keyboard too.

Swift 1 a screen HDMI same time.

Swift 3 also a desk lamp.
