ok, the following fix worked for me:
Goto the "Ubisoft Game Launcher" Folder rename "overlay64.dll" to "overlay64_old.dll" and then rename the "overlay.dll" to "overlay64.dll"

Nothing in here worked for me, I even renamed the startup intor *.bik files thinking it might be a playback issue.
The only thing that got it working all the time was to set UPlay in offline mode.
I did add all the Launcher executables in the firewall allowe dlist and still no luck, so the only thing that works for me is OFFLINE mode.
Glad to hear that your issue is resolved now, Geezer341
branconero, are you still experiencing the same issues with the game after all of the latest Uplay PC updates? If so, and you have not already done so, can you run through these steps please?
