Twice this happened. I was fighting Dodos (first the stray dodos for the levequest "Revenge of the Dodos" and after that a regular free range dodo). I don't know if it had anything to do with them putting me to sleep, but just when I was one hit away from finishing them off, I ended up suddenly standing there with my weapon drawn, fully awake, able to move, and able to use abilities, but not auto-attacking. I was facing the right direction, and I was close enough to attack (nothing appeared in the chat log that suggested I was not in the correct position). I cleared my target, and re-targeted thinking it would re-engage, but it did not.

One thing I did not try was putting my weapon away and drawing it again. I'm willing to bet this would've worked, but it obviously should not be working that way.

I ended up getting KO'd both times because I wasn't auto-attacking, and I didn't have enough TP to execute an offensive ability.
