jea48 - Plausible. Looks like an inferior connector, maybe defective from the start. My suggestion, don't use Rhodium ever for hi-fi. Silver all the way is so much better.
What happened here?

This is a Rhodium connector. Pulled the plug out to rewire and this looks like brown dust in one side of the plug. Rust?
