I have this weird issue that started a few days ago (after patch 6.45) where I play like normal but all of a sudden my audio cuts out, my character can still move but when I try and use actions or use any menu I can't, the game lags or freezes for a few seconds and then comes back, like normal, and it happens over and over again.

I looked all around the internet and my guess is that it has something to do with PS4 controller on PC or something. I tried everything, changing audio setting in game, on the PC audio settings, disabling my controller audio on settings, using the DS4Windows software, moving the cable, connecting it to another port, ETC. And nothing seems to solve the issue, I don't know what to do. Has anyone else encountered this issue ?

I have even tried playing without the controller, that seems to help, but I am not sure as I haven't tried playing with keyboard and mouse for long as I am used to playing with controller (I used to play on PS4 before changing to PC) and since I don't know how to play properly with Mouse & Keyboard I haven't tried doing instanced duties yet.

If anyone knows how to solve this issue I will greatly appreciate it. I am currently re-installing the game as it got so much out of hand that I felt like there was no other option as to uninstall and install again.

Thanks for the help.
