Cannot progress on first boss (Online co-op)

My girlfriend and I are experiencing a bug/glitch in the game where the first boss, the Vacuum, gets stuck pounding the ground with his arms and doesn't spawn the burning cans for sometimes a full 2-3 minutes. It seems as though we are getting desynched: from her point of view, she doesn't see some things in the game that I am seeing, and vice versa. When the burning cans do spawn (they spawn eventually) they explode almost immediately and we are unable to suck them up and shoot them at the boss.

We are both playing on PC.

Please advise.

    I ran into the same issue and have seen a couple of posts about this on reddit and steam, none with any solution. I'm playing remotely through origin and we are both in the same country (Costa Rica).

    We had the same issue when playing online. One of our devices had lower performance and I assume this has caused the glitch. Basically we just fought the boss while both playing on the same PC.

    My friend and I were having the same problem. We'd get through most of the fight ok. Towards the end though, the shockwaves from the arms would destroy the flaming cans before they could get sucked up. One time we got stuck on a loop of him just slamming the ground like others said. 

    I was playing on a laptop with lowered graphics settings. He was playing on a PC with all of the graphics settings at the highest level.

    He lowered his settings to match mine and it fixed the issue.
