Have you tried leaving it unplugged for a few minutes? I remember something similar happening to me during development of the VB-8012 and when I unplugged it and left it for our technician it turned on fine for him. I don't remember the full details (like how long to leave it unplugged) but there's a fuse that will only clear when no power is supplied for a while and it's there in case VB-8012 was introduced to unsafe conditions to prevent damage to the device or the externally connected hardware. I think the timeframe for it was something like 20 minutes to an hour.
Ah that did give it some life. I noticed it was able to boot and even enumerated on USB, however shortly after, maybe 10-15 seconds, its starts to sputter off, and comes in and out of the "off" state. I left it unplugged for a few days as well with no luck 😞
