I am experiencing the same issue. I have also restarted all systems and waited overnight thinking it may appear.
I am also experiencing this issue
I am always loaded back in at the exact same location
I just submitted a "duplicate" of this last night. It is happening during every gaming session, and I have now confirmed that another member of my Realm is experiencing the same issue.

After 2 days the cape has still not been awarded.
