To be honest I doubt your issue has anything to do with the hub. Maybe it is connected with your USB-C port. You can also try to connect a charger and check the battery stats in the Konsole.
upower -i /org/freedesktop/UPower/devices/battery_BAT1This should give you the status of the battery and it's health and whether it is charging or not.
Worth noting here is that you should try to connect with different chargers and cables to exclude problem with the charger/socket/cable.
My guess is that the charging port got loose or the connection between the port and your motherboard is broken. So it should be fairly easy to get fixed in any phone repair shop for not too much
The Battery seems to be OK but not charging.

I tried different chargers and cables, but the original chargers is the only one working. With others it won't start and the white light won't stay on but flashes.
You might be right with something being faulty on the port.
And I have good news for you. Most likely there is nothing wrong with your Deck. https://askubuntu.com/questions/1375960/plugged-power-but-pending-charge-anyway-asus-rog-20-04-3-lts. Check what this
pending-chargestate means. People are saying to simply wait for 5-10 minutes and see if it will start charging and also recommend to leave it to discharge more, as it might be some battery preservation mechanism.
