After NXOE, Kinect no longer sends signals for volume control, all else is fine

Since the NXOE, the Kinect no longer controls my Samsung UA55D8000 TV for volume changing commands.

It worked perfectly before update.

I have tried recalibration of kinect (although it appears you can no longer calibrate for position - both calibration options are for audio only).

I have removed the TV setup for device control and re-setup - Which is where it gets strange - During TV setup the kinect has no issues sending mute and volume down commands to TV and the TV recognises them.

I used phone camera to see if kinect is sending commands for volume control, but it does not. There is no issues with xbox on or xbox off. Channels change fine and voice controls work for everything else.

Please help. We finally have a great reason for using these commands (we just had or first child and nursing with voice commands would be awesome...).

Things I have tried:

Unplugging everything, power cycling, recalibration of kinect, I AM plugged directly into wall socket for power. I have the latest NXOE build.

Thanks.

IR out/Kinect no longer controls TV since NXOE

Since we got the updated system (November 2015), my Xbox hasn't been able to control my TV other than toggle power on/off.

I have (and had before new update) an IR blaster AND the Kinect. When I use the volume up control (either voice, smart glass, or media remote), the Xbox doesn't send a signal to the TV anymore. NO commands work.

I have disconnected both the Kinect and IR blaster, to see if one was interfering with the other, I've re calibrated the Kinect as well. The blaster I use lights up when it sends a signal ( I see it send the toggle power signal when I turn the Xbox on/off)

Anyone else have this issue?

 

Xbox One sound control question

Is it possible to control which device the Xbox One send the volume signal to? I have my X1 going HDMI into a sound bar, and the sound bar HDMI into the TV. Is it possible to send the volume control signal to the TV? Right now the X1 sends the signal to
the sound bar.

 

Mine is doing the same thing but my TV is a LG. I also checked with the phone camera for the IR blast during and after TV setup. During TV control setup I get the IR blast for mute and volume up and it controls the tv. But after setup just sitting on the
new NXOE build I do not get the IR blast for the Mute or and volume commands and every other IR blast command works that I tried besides those.

 

I have had many issues with Kinect since NXOE. I was running the preview builds and figured they would be resolved by release. Unfortunately they have not been resolved. Voice commands rarely work now. Xbox On etc. The Kinect will frequently be off requiring
me to reboot the console or disconnect and reconnect the Kinect. It's all but worthless now. My wife is so upset that I upgraded as she used the voice commands constantly to watch TV and Netflix etc. I would really like information on what's wrong and when
a fix will be released.

 

I use an IR blaster (plugs in separately in the back) and I have the same issue. The only command it sends my TV is "toggle", for the power on/off. My TV is a Magnavox.

 

I called Xbox support and they told me to post here - which is pretty poor - they can't even record my problem - I have to do it myself. Well guys, I am gonna try a factory reset and see what happens. I had Narse77s problem this morning - no kinect until
hard reboot.

 

Well factory reset worked and kinect is fully functional. Now to set up the xbox again...sigh...what was the missusses password....argh
