Description of the Issue
When opponent Pico is killed in the week 3 pico mix songs, the game freezes indefinitely. The game will remain frozen until the player presses the pause button, at which point the song restarts. However, pausing the game does not actually pause the game when clicked the first time, but it unfreezes the game.
Video Demonstration
To better understand the issue, we have included a video demonstration that showcases the problem. Please note that we waited until the vocals started before unfreezing the game, but Shadowplay for some reason cuts out freezes mostly.
