Hexed weapon suddenly losing condition mid-fight

I have done multiple play-throughs with Hexblades and Hexblade multiclasses, and this is the first time I'm encountering this issue.
My standard post-long-rest buff routine includes:
Shadow Blade -> Bind Hexed Weapon. For the 3rd time in this run, I have started combat with my hexed shadow blade and suddenly found myself getting only one attack because my shadow blade has lost the "hexed weapon" status. I have not unequipped it, dropped it, or any of the obvious things people immediately assume.
Fortunately I'm not playing in honour mode or this could be catastrophic.
Every Google result about this has to do with the opposite - not being able to remove the effect.
I have not tried this with a standard weapon or regular pact weapon so I don't know if it has anything to do with the weapon being a shadow blade or not.
I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this and knows what could be causing it, or if this playthrough has somehow gotten bugged? I thought I would ask before spending time doing extensive troubleshooting.
The only mod I'm using is the Aasimar race from the in-game mod manager, and I've had that forever without problems.
