Controller just randomly stops working in menus PC

I've got exactly the same problem - really pushing my buttons. Especially given you cant buy concept players directly and you have to go to the transfer market, and I have to restart my game like 3 times for each player because my controller stops interacting. 

I have had an issue on Xbox where I came out for the 2nd half of a game and my controller would not register any button presses yet opponent was running around with ball.

This is with me using my controller with a cable and not batteries. A little concerning. 

Move you PC mouse on the top of the screen when this happens.

I thought also my controller isnt working but after moving the mouse on the top of the screen this havent happen to me.

Hey all, what controller are you using, is there any other USB device plugged into your system, are you using inbuilt Bluetooth or the official dongle for your controller?

I have the same issue with the xbox controller  

PC with PS5 controller with 3rd party bluetooth.
The problem is that when it happens, and you try to press buttons with cabled mouse, buttons are highlighted but press does nothing.
Can not go back, proceed, it happens in many menu screens, from UT to Clubs. Its like game stops responsing to prompt presses.
It forces a game restart.
