Actually I've been doing a bunch of studying on Ayu's Secret Live, and the issues started during THAT show. She was getting over a cold & ear infection the day of the show.

Then in Concert Tour 2000, she got a cold during rehearsals for act 2 and some shows had to be delayed while she recovered, and guess what? She was having trouble with her ear. I actually remember that from news reports that fan sites were sharing at the time. I thought for ages that THAT was when it started, but nope. Secret Live. Pretty crazy how far back the issue goes.
