Sneak / stealth bugged?

Is anyone else having an issue in Cyrodiil where your character will randomly pop out of sneak for apparently no reason? I'm just watching a battle or walking and...poof...out of sneak.

I'm trying to figure if it's a glitch, or some ability. I don't think it's an ability...tends to happen far from action.

    There might be someone nearby
    Someone might have popped a detect potion
    Someone might run magelight while in stealth
    NPC nearby (wolves, guards, trolls)

    Other then that, I have no issues staying in stealth

    Cool...

    It's not a potion or detect, the character just stands up randomly like I pushed the button. I wanted to see if there was a known issue. Sounds like it might be my controller, thanks!

    Did you drop caltrops?

    If someone stand in your caltrops you pop out of stealth

    Or maybe you moved and stamina was drained

    I had this happen to me like 45 minutes ago. It was in an open field so luckily nobody was nearby but with my recovery I don't use any stamina while in sneak, if I do its insignificant to the amount I get back. I also don't have caltrops and nobody was near. So this may be a glitch? Or maybe it has to do with lag?

    Huh...let me test the caltrops. It's a new ability for me. I'm not sure I've been using it when I've had the sneak issues, but I'm also not sure I haven't.

    So...if I drop caltrops, walk 20 meters away and sit on a rock and someone hits my caltrops, are you saying I'd exit sneak? Will play with that.
