Preview toggle in adjustment panels not working in Photoshop v21.1.0

After upgrading Photoshop to ver. 21.1.0 the toggle switch ('P') in adjustment panels usually doesn't work. Only sometimes is does. Clicking the checkbox works for previewing but not very smooth.

I reinstalled PS (without keeping prefs) but problem still occurs. VERY frustrating!

    Hello, for adjustment layers, the shortcut is \ does it also misbehave.

    for those, I sometimes need to wait half a second to see the preview, even on older versions.

    For the "regular" curves, the shortcut on a PC is ALT+P indeed, and it is immediate, on an older version again.

    HAdn’t tried the modifier keys, »ctrl-P« seems to work in 21.1.0 while in 20.0.8 both »P« and »ctrl-P« work in the Curves dialog window on Mac.

    Luckily Photoshop gives you the possibility to uninstall 21.1.0 and turn back to 21.0.3, and that's exactly what I did!

    I didn't have too many issues with the earlier version.

    The problem occurs mainly (maybe only?) in CURVES panel, HUE/SATURATION seems to work

    The Preview-shortcut in the Curves dialog appears to behave differently in Photoshop CC 2019 and Photoshop 2020 (20.0.8 and 21.1.0 on macOS 10.15.3) for me too.
