H Pattern Shifter Problem

i am running the Thrustmaster TX wheel with the T3PA pedals and the TH8A shifter and for the most part it is all working without fault.

Occasionally though i have an issue where the shifter simply stops working mid race, and doesn’t start working again until I give the xbox a hard reset.

I did have this issue a few times in FM5, but dismissed it as one of the many FM5 bugs.
I doubt it is a hardware issue, as it never occurs in Horizon 2, Project Cars or F1 2015.

Anyone else experienced this, or know of a fix?
