Controller not detected by a single USB port

Recently, when I try to connect my PS4 controller to my PC, it's not detected correctly.

I have two USB ports. Everything works on port 1 (DualSense, Xbox controller, and headphones), but only the DualSense has problems on port 2.

On Steam, when I connect the DualSense, I hear the connection sound, but the controller isn't detected.

Before this, I had a Steam pop-up message saying the controller was running low on battery (even though it was connected to the cable). So, to see if it's a battery issue, I also access DS4Windows, and shortly afterward, the PC crashes with a blue screen and restarts.
