Sims won't acknowledge the kitchen sink

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.104.58.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Everything except Journey to Batuu, Werewolves, Horse Ranch, and For Rent.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? have the sims eat dinner in the dining room. click on plates to clean up. see if they put them in sink or trash. keep the kitchen sink (selected kitchen with new update) closer to dining table than trash can.
What happens when the bug occurs? when cleaning plates from dining room, the sims will only acknowledge the dishwasher and the trash can and ignore the sink in the room. It is not a CC sink. It came from one of the packs.
What do you expect to see? When sims are clearing plates at the dining table, they will wash them in the kitchen sink if the dishwasher is in use.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. 1.104.58.1030 patch but may have been doing it before.

My sims will not autonomously interact with the sink in the kitchen. It has been designated as a kitchen sink. It is way closer to the dining room than the trash can but the sims will put plates in the dishwasher or trash can. They never use the kitchen sink.

Edit By Crinrict: Adjusted title

  • As far as I know, sims will always use the trash can instead of the sink if there are leftovers on the plate. Are those plates empty? Also, is the sink maybe broken or unaccessible? Does it work if you try to brush your teeth there?

  • @honeygirl25 Do they throw the plate away or just clean it first before using dishwasher ?

    Could you maybe post a video of what you are seeing ?
