I should have caught a loose connector during testing, as I plug a cable into it. I was definitely tugging on them while working through the latest batch today
By any chance do you have the part# for the orig jack that was going to be used? I see that the locking pin holes are still present on the PCB - I don't have any concerns with using some standoffs that are .5mm-1mm longer to keep well enough away from the Pi5 jack, and will use a couple layers of Kapton tape between the two.
