Aura bug(s) tied to event?

Is there an aura bug or bugs tied to the event? I've been noticing I've suddenly been experiencing something like blindness without actually having the debuff or the killer's perks or addons being able to apply it.

I run kindred and am missing hooked survivors, the bubble when they get hooked, and the killer when they're near the hook. Wesker's med spray boxes didn't have auras but the med sprays themselves when dropped did.

I did see Vecna auras when having items equipped that show his aura when he casts (or whatever they do, I've always been fuzzy on what those items do) as well as auras for his chests.

It also seems like I'm deafened sometimes, like the killer just pops out of nowhere with no visual or audio queues - again, without any perk or addon explanation.

Other times I'll see a yellow survivor aura standing stationary somewhere with no explanation. It's just weird.

As Killer:

I've noticed weird aura artifacts sticking around on some killers. Specifically, Knight's summoned patrols seem to leave stationary white auras of whoever it was that was summoned. They just stand there for the rest of the match. I haven't noticed if they're replaced when I summon them again.

Otherwise, I do seem to still see auras from BBQ and Nowhere to Hide.

Anyone else experiencing this?

    I've had a similar issue pop up but not that extreme. Couldn't see a downed survivor or when they got hooked.

    I've noticed this before the event but thought it was just me being tired all the time. I can't see fellow slugged survivors auras more than half the time. I'm also a Kindred user . Maybe that perk has some bug that's causing aura reading problems when certain conditions are met. Not seeing hooked survivors has happened as well but only a couple times.

    I haven't reported it in the bugs section because I don't have video proof and I'm working so much that I can't play as much.

    This started for me maybe around 2 patches ago
