I am having a similar issue. Just noticed before the cable melted.

@megous thanks for the hint of measuring the USB-A side. Indeed there is a short of the outer two pins (VCC and GND) which explains the effect.

I will order a replacement board and then unsolder and check the components connecting VCC and GND to see which one produces the short.
