Serious issues with cameras in cutscenes and Jake inexplicably falling [SPOILER]

@kinggath or someone more experienced with SS2 bugs
I encountered camera issues in the 'Where There's Smoke' Mission. During the event I have to sit on the chair, the screen with the tuning options did not appear… the camera was positioned behind the character in 3rd person. Disabling and re-enabling the Camera option in Dialog did not resolve the issue. So, after many attempts, I decided to try the console, I used the TCL commands (which didn't solve anything) and TFC and when it was deactivated, the dialog appeared.
However, during the dialogue with Jake before sitting in the chair, he kept falling down as if he had been hit by enemies. Upon returning, the dialog had to be restarted from the beginning continuing this behavior. I was only able to progress by quickly 'cutting' the dialogues using the mouse, which hampered the immersion of the scene.
I searched the Forum for problems with Jake falling and came to Kinghat's suggestion to use Vit-O-Matic on Jake. Apparently it temporarily fixed the unusual behavior.
I finally got to the interaction with Aiden part and the problem with the camera and dialogue being cut appeared again. I was forced to use TFC every iteration until I reached the end of the cutscene. At least after the fight with the Gunners Jake apparently stopped falling out of nowhere.
I remember that I don't have any mod that affects the camera and I experienced the same problems in both SS2 versions 2.2.0a and 2.20b.
 
See through scopes is known to cause issues with that quest, in case you have that. Or XDI without the patch. Also I've had some issues with radio dialogue but tinkering with dialogue camera fixed it. The Jake thing kinda seems like he was in combat?.. Some leftover raiders maybe.
 
I have never Jake randomly being 'downed' before. My guess is this is a mod conflict. Its like something is randomly applying an effect on Jake.
 
I don't have See through scopes installed in this mod set. As for conflict with some other mod, if it happens again - as using Vit-o-Matic seemed to fix Jake - I will check and update the status of this Post. Thank you guys.

I seem to remember that custom companions (from other mods) can have that effect on Jake, but it's been a while since a saw such a report, and it wasn't during those scenes :unknw
