Hi, I have never tested wigner seitz cutoff with variable_cell indeed. Maybe you should try a vc_relax with BLYP. And then just, an scf with B3LYP and vcut_ws for having the electronic structure properly.

cheers

I am not sure that the  exxdiv_treatment='vcut_ws' machinery
is assumed to work during variable-cell optimization.
