I have an issue where my new Blue Yeti X microphone disconnects from my MacBook Pro after a short while and then is not recognized as a device. Unplugging and replugging it back does not resolve the problem. The only way to restore functionality is to restart the MacBook.
Have others seen this issue and come up with a solution? TIA

I experienced the same problem. It seems related to the Logitech G-Hub driver for Blue Yeti microphones.
I removed that driver and now my Blue Yeti X microphone is using the integrated driver of macOS and it seems to work without issues. Of course, doing these, all the "Blue Voice" effects and other settings that Logitech's G-Hub app allowed will no longer work, but the microphone should still be usable in its basic functions including volume control or mode change with its physical buttons.
To remove the Logitech G-Hub driver you just need to remove the file "logi_audio_override.kext" from the folder library/extensions of your system hard drive (I just moved it to a folder in my Desktop to keep a backup of the file).
I also used this command in Terminal to remove all the drivers I deleted and I will no longer use (if I'm not wrong, I think this removes a folder that works as cache of drivers):
sudo kextcache --clear-staging
After reboot the system, the microphone should now use the built-in macOS driver with no problem.
For now, my Blue Yeti X microphone seems to work without problems with macOS Monterey 12.2.1. I will maintain Logitech G-Hub installed hoping that sooner or later they will release an update that corrects the problem and be able to use its advanced equalization and profile functions again.
@grrblrr if you hear of GHub issue being worked out, please keep us informed.
A new version of Logitech G-Hub has been released today: 2022.3
It seems it has solved the issue for me.
