I had that, fought it for years. Besides snoring like a rusty chain saw I would stop breathing several times a night for up to a minute. Drove my wife nuts.
Weird thing is, I lost a bunch of weight last year,and the problem went away. I don't even snore that much anymore.

I actually lost 50 AFTER I started with it. I finally had the energy to do something. I didn't snore hard I would just stop breathing for 30 seconds or more then gasp all at once.

Back with a new hose.
Technician told me, "Oh, the ones that come with the machine aren't as durable as the replacement hoses."
Duh.....
Same brand, Phillips, but the spring coil is a slightly different color, so it at least came from a different lot.
Since the break is only about a foot from one end, I may put a new end on the old hose and get a coupler, then use it as a longer hose. At least until it develops another leak.
Like Marc referred to, I may lose weight as a result of the new-found energy to accomplish things when fully-rested.
We'll see what tomorrow brings....
And Marc, have no fear. There will be no sex while wearing the mask. Of that you can be assured!

Went to OSH and bought a schedule 80 3/4" barbed hose coupler. Fits perfectly.
Cleaned out the old hose end and trimmed the broken hose, then screwed the end back on with a very-light coating of clear RTV.
I now have an approximately eleven-foot air tubing.
I will have to check to see if the extra length through the spiral tube affects the air flow significantly.
