    I have had this as well, but just cant switch weapon at all. I have to smash 1/2/3/4 about 5 times for it to eventually register.

    Actually what i eventually found was that reloading helped.

    So say i am using sidearm, cant switch to primary, just fire off a shot and reload, following that I could switch to primary etc.

    Still very annoying, happens randomly.
