Oculus co-founder shipping free Rift repair kits to users with VR headset audio issue

Oculus co-founder Palmer Luckey isn't in the VR hardware business these days since getting canned by Facebook (he's focused on smart border security at his new company Anduril), but he still wants people to like the product he helped design. A couple of months back he detailed some of the rather intricate mods he had made to the company's Oculus Go headset to better tailor the headset to his use cases. Today, he's showcasing a fix for an audio hardware issue in the original Rift that he says is causing problems for some Rift users, cutting off audio in the headset's right headphone.
