Steps:
1. Controller appears to be disconnecting at multiple instances since in-game Gamepad Config menu option introduced.

3. Reconnection (or detection of controller) occurs three to six seconds later.
4. Started out as infrequent, but has become a frequent occurrence disrupting gameplay.

I’m experiencing the same issue as well.

Steps:
1. Wired USB DualShock 4 controller “loses” connection to the game frequently since the latest patch. “Reconnects” a few seconds later. Can occur several times per hour. This was never an issue prior to the game update. Tried with a separate DualShock 4 controller and recreated the same issue.
