Controller input is causing some weirdness in-game for me.

1) When the controller input is set to "hybrid" and the input selection changes from controller to keyboard/mouse (likely because I accidentally bumped my desk), the gameplay & audio freeze for just a second. It's minimal, but it's intrusive.

2) Any time I'm in the Animus loading screen (fast travel, respawn, etc) and I have controls set to either exclusively the mouse/keyboard *or* controller input, the loading times take FOREVER. We're talking 2-3 minutes, at the very least. I'm still able to move around, but the game just won't load the environment. If I change the input to hybrid however, the loading times are super fast (..but then I have to endure the issue from #1 above, which is why I forced it to "controller" in the first place).

For reference, I've got a Ryzen 5 2600, 32 GB DDR4 3200 MHz RAM, a GeForce 2080 Super, and my OS & game are installed on separate m.2 NVME drives so I don't think the load times or chop are system/resource related.
