Exactly the same problem - randomly services and controller app goes to 40-60% cpu and sits there for a long while.
I have tried the clen boot etc and it always comes back.

When i look on task manager, I will sometimes see Services and Controller app using around 30-40% CPU sometimes when i am playing games, this happens and total cpu usage goes to 100%, and it seems to make my voice call sound weird.
For some context, this always happens on start-up and then at random times. I use a laptop.
Is there anyway to fix this? and if not fixable what is the Services and Controller app process doing?

Edit: It happens when using youtube with chrome. It does not happen with firefox.
