If anyone here has this issue, Lazy Duchess (who released the Smooth Patch last year) has created a patch to fix the issue. Details are here:

In case anyone's wondering, you can extract the .zip wherever you want, then launch the patch and point it at whichever .exe runs the game (TS3.exe for Origin, TS3W.exe, with the W, for disc or Steam). This patch essentially applies the same workaround as the PowerShell script to the game .exe so it works on its own, with no need to run the patch or do anything else after the first time.
And no, EA hasn't fixed this problem yet.
Thank you Puzzleaddict and Lazy Duchess for another workaround for users. Thank you Puzzleaddict for continuously trying to help those in need on here and the Ea help forms. And thanks you Lady Duchess for the additional workaround. It's good to see users help others out. Thanks again.
