Duplicating from 1.12 firmware discussion, as this is probably more suitable place for this piece of knowledge.
- Usb audio gadget mode on MDX seems to cause USB connection fails, it was doing the same on 1.11, but at lower rate. Now in 1.12 probability of failed usb connect seem to raise up compared to 1.11, and it might take series of reboots to connect.
Try disabling audio gadget before blaming hardware, buying stacks of new USB cables, etc.

Forgetting to create file that is responsible for windows compatibility caused complete USB connection disruption for me on windows, if audio gadget is enabled.

I’ve just noticed that hardware UI in 1.12 has new menu for enabling audio gadget mode in my MDX : System → Device Settings → USB-B Mode setting. (UPD: only for midi, not audio)
Seems to me like it does the same stuff that was made be creating flag files via ssh/touch, but you can do it without USB connection, and therefore restore usb connectivity by disabling experimental feature, if something has gone wrong with audio gadget.
