My cable is an "official" BaoFeng Tech PC03 FTDI USB Programming Cable and I also had to do this to make it work with the rest of my radios. It's a fairly common problem, good to hear you got it sorted.
(This did not however solve the problem I was seeing on a few BTech MURS-V1 units, they have plenty of clearance between the cable connector and radio case. Just a batch of marginal Kenwood socket assemblies on those units, it seems.)

CHIRP is not getting any data back from the 2 clone requests. Either there is no connection between the plug and socket or the socket itself has an issue.
I went ahead and filed some plastic off of the plug and between that and a firm grip, it was able to clone to/from the radio. Thanks for the help.
This was an official Baofeng cable, but it looks like they have a newer version that I assume has more clearance...
