    @ziyadbadboy64 This is because you changed the layout to Alternate right? Same problem for a lot of people. Luckily I play pad on pc. so I can still use the KB+M to change ammo.

    Yes, instead of changing the ammo type my character melees (as I have alternate buttons set). Selecting up, left and down works okay for other attachments,  but O doesn't ignore the standard O function.

    Just seen another post on this subject. Apparently a work around is to hold the O instead of clicking it. Not tested it yet, but I'm hopeful.

    I tried with the Series X version (holding the B button) but it doesn't work

    I have had this too.

    To get it to work.....

    Hold R1

    Select desired ammo and hold 'O'

    Whilst keeping 'O' held, release R1.

    The knife may still be there but press triangle to bring your weapon back up and reload.

    You should now have the desired ammo type.

    When you have on alternative as of now you will have to hold down O and then relese L1 and you will switch ammo. You can also quickly tap and hold O to switch how many times you want with out brining up the plus screen again. Hopefully they will fix it tho....
