Game Stops Responding to Inputs

[CapnFlint]

Anyone ever have issues where their IL2 game just stops responding to control inputs - joystick, keyboard, etc

Twice now I've lost controls mid-dogfight - no joystick or rudder response -  and then the Esc menu won't even work after I've died.

 

Playing in VR but VR view still moves around.
