Town guard equipment problem on new game.

[kashman31591]

So when I start a new game, all the guards only equip steel daggers. They have other weapons in their inventory (when killed or pick pocketed) but will not equip them, even when attacked. The only exception seems to be that they will equip ranged weapons. All other NPCs seem to be fine, this issue is limited to guards and occasionally soldiers. I have tried removing all weapons mods and that has not fixed the problem, so it has to be something else. This also only happens in new games, the oldest continuing save game I have is unaffected, even when accessing Solstheim for the first time a few weeks ago (All Redoran Guards equip proper weapons). This is driving me crazy and help is greatly appreciated. Here is my load order, I use BOSS. Have at it.
