How important is motherboard choice to a long lasting computer build?

My MSI (MEG Z390 Godlike LGA1151) started failing at exactly 12 months in. Audio Out (Line Out) failure.

Everything else works fine.

I switched off my computer speaker system and went to headphones and my Bluetooth earbuds.

I haven't figured out what I'm going to do yet for a long term repair. Probably wait for the next failure and then replace the motherboard.
