On a Dark Souls 3 for ps4 (latest patch but it's always happened), if you're locked onto an enemy, sometimes hitting circle (to roll) causes your character to parry rather than roll if a shield is equipped.
This happens for all of the weapons I've used but it's not exclusively a parry thing- whatever your L2 trigger does (default control layout- it's the Parry button), sometimes will trigger randomly in fights. Sometimes not even in fights.
Why is this happening and how can I stop it? Has anyone else experienced this?
It's infuriating.
Edit:
I've further refined this to a specific, easily reproducible example.
If you equip the Deep Battle Axe, pressing up and circle at the same time will cause the action of L2 happen.

Edit 2:
Ok this just happens when you press L3.
Still. How do you turn it off?

Controller was messed up for some reason.
