Action bubbles disappearing

I'm sure this has been reported, but I'm having trouble finding a recent/active post about it. 

I play on pc, no mods installed, game is all updated. I also play on two different pcs sometimes and it happens on both so it's not just limited to one save I have. I've had this issue for a few months now where I click on a task for my sims to do and it just disappears. They do not give the thought bubble or animation saying that they're stuck or something, the action just disappears. It's not an issue of the object being inaccessible because eventually they will go and use it or complete the action. It takes about 3-4 times of me clicking the same action in order for my sims to complete it. This happens so often it's basically almost every time I try and get my sims to do something. I will literally have to click the same action like "go here" 3-4 times just to get them to do it without the action bubble disappearing.
