I ran into this as my xbox controller ran out of battery. Swapped the batteries and it worked. So most likely it has something to do with the controller.
For me in the Oculus store version, it bugs differently:
When i enter seamoth to cyclops, it works just fine most of the time, sometimes i fall down to seafloor and keep walking there like inside a base untill i restart the game.
And while at it make some button on the controller work as scroll down. As now tou have to look at the sidebar and pull the thing down if it is a longer text.
