Anyone else having trouble activating RB abilities?

Don't kno  if it's me,  my controller,  the game itself,  butI'm having a hard time getting abilities to light up on my RBs. Put bruiser on Dickerson  , barely get it to light up when trucking and almost never when using stiff arm.

Maybe you have to do it when not sprinting now? Didn't used to be that way...

I get bulldozer to light up on DK just fine,  every time basically. 

Do u guys notice this? Had something changed recently? Do I need a new controller? I mean I get a trucking animation but no light up so it's reading the truck input
