Wireless headset switches to USB when connected via USB

I know that sounds dumb, but hear me out XD

I bought a Logitech A20 X and am connecting it via their Lightspeed dongle. It can also do USB and Bluetooth. I want Lightspeed *exclusively.*

When I connect it via USB, my PC registers it as a USB device, and interprets it as a different headset. So stuff like Discord and OBS gets confused about what audio device to use.

When I disable the USB input and output devices, it still attempts, fails, and exits out of wireless mode and enters an error state until I disconnect USB or re-enable the devices.

Is there a way to make it charge off the same computer while still connecting wirelessly? I didn't find anything in G Hub. Can I maybe restrict that specific USB port from doing anything but charging? Mess with the USB drivers somehow?

I usually use AUX exclusively, because it's much simpler and doesn't cause issues like this, this is my first wireless/USB headset.
