NPC Communication Skipping on PS5

Hi! I just installed PoE 2 Early Access on PS5 and updated to latest. I am having issues when talking to NPCs.

Only the first line is read/spoken and afterwards the whole communication is quickly skipped through as though I am tapping on the X button but I am not. I am not applying any input whatsoever.

At this state, the game is unplayable for me, since I can't follow along with the story. This happens starting with the first converstaion I have when I come across a dying person and then in the village as well. I have stopped playing at this point.

I am playing sorceress, though I doubt this makes any difference.
