Your code is too complicated to troubleshoot. Create a separate project that demonstrates the issue.

I will note that ADC2 and WiFi cannot be used at the same time on the ESP32, but that may not be an issue on S3.

Yep, it still is an issue on ESP32-S3.

ADC2 – no restrictions, unless there is an on-going Wi-Fi connection. ADC2_CH… analog functions (see Table 2-4 RTC and Analog Pin Functions) cannot be used with Wi-Fi simultaneously.

ESP32-S3 datasheet page 20

However the pin mentioned here in the title of this issue should be connected to ADC1, so that should not be related to WiFi activities.
