Description

Describe the Bug

When I'm switching RGB modes, after reaching the last effect the keyboard disconnect, freeze, from the computer and I need to plug my keyboard again. This only happens when I'm changing the RGB effect. This doesn't happen when I use VIA or other command from QMK like speed or brightness.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Check the RGB mode cycle code for potential buffer overflow or improper USB descriptor handling. Focus on how the keyboard registers the RGB effect changes and whether the USB report is being sent correctly, possibly causing a disconnect.
