Maps Local Coop not playable after 1 player dies

Does anyone have the same issue: in local coop we start a map and then one of the two players dies. The screen then totally freezes and the alive player doesn't see anything anymore and dies. The endgame is unplayable like this in local coop. First only one player can start a map, which is insanely annoying and then you can only survive the map together or not finish at all. Since the endgame we don't enjoy playing it anymore.
