Hi, new to ME series here, same problem, can't enjoy the game because of this stupid bug. Have you found any solution yet ?
Otherwise here are my observations:
1) if you fire your weapon once BEFORE using a power (be it biotic or tech), the probability of encountering this bug drops drastically;
2) move around AFTER using power, it seems to negate the effect sometimes;
however i think the 1) is the better work-around to go, it seems to work in 80+% of the time.
Other workarounds include:
3) using a power at far distance then close in after 2 seconds then fire;
4) using a power then change your weapon;
5) always save BEFORE AND AFTER a fight, when my weapon fails like this i just reload immediately because i was a sitting duck, can't shoot then squad-mates steal my kill i am always pissed when this happens and i just wanna shoot EA in the face.....
Of course when you're in a tight fight you really just NEED IT TO WORK properly
I managed to use strategy 1 to clear the game all the way to the final battle, but be aware, there's another major bug apparently caused by biotic power usage in the final battle, which freezes your game completely or causing a crash...
at this point i abandoned the game.
GO TO HELL EA.

I gave up for a while, uninstalled the game, and when I reinstalled the bug was no longer present. I still kept my saves as well, but since it had been a year since playing I just started over. But again, that bug never reappeared.
