Pounce/Shapeshifting causing Charged Staff to not work

Tried to add Pounce into my build, upon using pounce/shapeshifting my charged staff refused to create the lightning projectiles from spawning. Visual effect on my weapon/hands is there but the projectile that damages enemies does not spawn causing the skill to do nothing. Re-buffing with power-charges while still under the effect does not return the projectiles, the only way for the skill to work as intended is to let the original charged staff buff to run down it's timer and reapply the effect from scratch.
