AirPods Pro case won't accept cord

My AirPods Pro case will no longer accept the charging cable. When I try to plug it in, it won't go all the way into the case to power / charge. I've tried with several different cables which all work just fine with my iPhone 11 and which are Apple cables. The receptacle appears to have broken or is misaligned.

iPhone 11 Pro Max, iOS 14
