Kontakt Crashing After Right-Clicking "Learn Midi CC Automation" After Recent Windows Update

So last night, I ran into a nasty little bug, where right-clicking "learn midi CC automation," and messing around with it for a few moments, causes all audio to cut out. Trying to switch instruments results in a total Kontakt, and DAW crash. I checked, and this happens with multiple instruments from multiple manufacturers. From Spitfire, to Soniccouture. I am running the most up to date version of Kontakt available through Native Access, on the most up to date version of my DAW (Digital Performer). I noticed this happening only after a Windows update that hit me a few days ago.

This is what shows up in Event Viewer's crash report.

Faulting application name: DP.exe, version: 11.3.2.30225, time stamp: 0x66577805

Faulting process id: 0x0xB68

Faulting application start time: 0x0x1DB08D350EA2693

Faulting application path: C:\Program Files\MOTU\Digital Performer 11.32\DP.exe

Faulting module path: C:\Windows\SYSTEM32\ntdll.dll

Has anyone experienced something similar to this? I know I'm a bit of an outlier, since I'm a Digital Performer user on Windows, but this problem seems to be rooted in Kontakt specifically. I have a video showing exactly what happens, but I'm unable to post it due to being too new to the community.

    Yes I experience this with Reaper and Kontakt 8 Player on a track.

    I insert the instrument as a Stereo VSTi and load up a 40's keys patch - assigning midi from my Arturia Keylab Essential 61 Mk3 the 6th rotary crashes Kontakt but this is even without assigning midi. The keyboard program is in the Arturia Mode.

    In a Arturia custom midi mode I do not have the same issue - program DAW control on midi channel 1 and instrument on channel 2. Testing ongoing. Diva after resizing the UI to 150% seems stable so far but again need more time in the saddle so to speak.
