During the Counting House mission the problem returned with full force. It took once again full minutes for the cutscene to launch.
The bank-fight was like that for me (I'm on the PC-version) - but that was before hotfix 11.
After that one dropped, my Act III problems with rubber banding/freezing/companions not following, etc all went away.
There's still plenty of other annoying bugs left ... like camera issues in conversations, my Minsc's character portrait getting messed up when I leveled him up for the first time and, most worryingly, my game insta-CTDing when I try to deactivate DLAA in the video-options. That last one has been happening for me since patch 4 dropped.
But I did all sorts of Act III "leg work" since the hotfix (Guild fight, cheesing cheap divine blessings for five characters, lots of shopping and picking up other quests, collecting most Clown bodyparts, etc) and it all ran smoothly.
