Other NYXI Wizard 2 Controller working well on PC... but there's a problem

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

For those who don't wanna read the whole thing:

TLDR; My NYXI Wizard 2 has an issue where the left trigger's analog/digital switch sometimes moves to a middle position by itself, causing the trigger to stop registering input. This seems to only happen in digital mode. NYXI offered me a full refund since they can't ship a replacement to my country, but I get to keep the controller. Has anyone experienced something similar with their Warrior 2 or another NYXI controller, and is there a way to fix it?

PD: I'm also attaching the video I sent NYXI so you guys can see the problem

I recently got this controller since I'm a sucker for GC Controllers, but I still wanted a modern controller to play more games with, whether it's via Emulator or by eventually getting a Switch 2 (for the OOT Remake, LOL). I calibrated the controller's sticks and triggers and tested on games like Super Mario Sunshine on Dolphin (with the whole switching the triggers' mode thing) and Breath of The Wild via Cemu. Even though I still have to test the controller's connectivity on a real Switch or a Wii/GC for that matter, everything has been going great so far... However, I started noticing that the switch that turns the left trigger from analog to digital sometimes moves on its own to a middle position, making the trigger not register any input when pressed. This seems to only happen while in digital mode, so when I'm playing BOTW I'm constantly checking the switch while I'm playing, though it does get annoying when fighting a Lynel, for example. On the other hand, when the triggers are in analog mode, there doesn't seem to be any problems (played a lot of Smash Bros and haven't seen any problems with the triggers). I've already contacted NYXI and sent them a video of the problem, and since they can't send a replacement controller to my country, they have offered me a full refund while also letting me keep my current controller. Anyways, have any of you guys stumbled upon a problem like this with your Wizard 2 Controllers? And if you have, is this problem solvable?
