the wheel of time - A character is claimed to have died over the course of the series. When did that happen?

When else has Mat died? (Wheel of Time, minor spoiler)
In A Memory of Light, it is revealed that:
The Horn of Valere is no longer bound to Mat, due to him having died.
However, one of the Heroes of the Horn (Artur Hawkwing himself, if I recall correctly) corrects him and indicates:
Mat's death from hanging in Rhuidean was not the death that severed the connection to the Horn of Valere.
If that wasn't when it happened, when did it? Did he die twice?
Answer
It was when Rahvin killed him during the attack on Caemlyn at the end of The Fires of Heaven. During the ambush, Mat, Aviendha, and Asmodean were all killed by lightning from Rahvin. At the end of the fight Rand balefired Rahvin, undoing his actions and bringing those three back to life.
From my CoT signing report:
Tim Kington My friend Josh and I had been talking about how Rand and Mat spent a week in Rhuidean, and so he asked how long Mat was hanging.
Robert Jordan Long enough.
Josh Long enough for what?
ROBERT JORDAN Long enough to be ALMOST dead.
