wireless keyboard connection issue using usb-a/c connector

i am using a wireless keyboard with a usc-c/a connector. it works when i plug the usb-c adapter directly into my keyboard but doesn't work when plugged into my Lention connector where my charger is also plugged in. it's worked perfectly fine for the last year, as well as this morning. tonight, i plugged the Lention connector into my macbook, it charged, but the keyboard didn't work. i'm not sure what brand of keyboard it is because it was just from amazon but i'm not sure what to do.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 14.6

sounds like third party issue— which you do not name.


Try a different keyboard and compare your results.
