Fingerprint Sensor Stops Working



I've been using the fingerprint sensor on the 5X to unlock the device since I received it on the 21st. Today, my phone suddenly stopped recognizing my fingerprint. I went through the following steps:
  1. Restarted the device.

  2. Deleted my fingerprint and tried readding it, but it wouldn't recognize it there either.

  3. I tried adding all my other fingers with no luck.

  4. Had my girlfriend try her fingerprint (which she added yesterday).

  5. Restarted the device again.


I'm hesitant to reformat as I'm happy with my device setup and I'm hoping there's a less destructive fix. Am I the only one with this issue? Any suggestions?

It's also worth noting I've made sure the OS is as up-to-date as possible.
