Controller input delay on PC when using Gamepad "automatic" mode

When playing with a controller on PC - both through Steam and not - I have to press each skill button twice to get it to actually work. Has been a problem since early 2024, after a patch (don't recall which one). Stupid thing is, I press the button once eg Shadow Cloak, interact with a container, press Shadow Cloak again and then it works.

There's an additional delay too, since I think early this year, with having controller input set to "automatic" - it can be up to a second, depending on what I'm doing, eg just moving, swapping bars etc.
I use the "automatic" setting so that I can easily switch between the controller and KB/M. I know it won't happen if I switch to just controller, but that UI is really awful compared to the PC UI. And the bigger point is that I shouldn't have to; it never used to be a problem.

Edit: I have had a look through Patch notes but have been unable to pinpoint after which patches these issues started occurring.
