Controller no longer powers on console

Pressing the xbox button on my controller no longer causes the console to power on. After powering up the console by directly pressing its xbox button/icon the controller sync up and otherwise works flawlessly.

Hard resetting the console makes no difference. Resyncing using the controller's connect button makes no difference. How else might I make the controller correctly power on the console again?

Can't turn XBox One on with my controller anymore.

Recently, I noticed that when I powered on my X1 controller, the console no longer powers on with it. Also, when I turn the system off by tapping the light or by Kinect, the controller doesn't turn off like it should and it just stays on (controller is 100%
synced/connected to the console).

I know this is a "small" problem, but it's just inconvenient to me. Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance.

 

Plugging in Controller Powers on Console - Why?

Well, to "defend" myself: I have a 360 also, but an elite version and a play and charge kit, and it does not continue loading, when I power off my 360. So that's were I supposed the One to do the same, especially when in energy saving mode.

And for the rest of your very "polite" post: this may be one of the 4 or 5 posts out of 550 verified support posts where I was wrong , so it may just be human to make such mistakes. You at least, did not know the answer at all. So maybe think on your words
again. And well, read what Jaymo said on this.

 

Do you have access to another controller to see whether the issue lies with the controller or the console itself?

 

There is no direct setting for it but i would say try power draining the console for @ least a minute maybe even change power mode and try it

 

Have you tried connecting the controller to the console with a cable (if you have one) and then updating the firmware? See if you can switch the console on using a cabled controller - I would hope that would work.

Then try the steps you have already undertaken again with the cable unplugged.

(Worked for me last month, or could just have been dumb luck)

 

This was happening to me with two different controllers, I wanna say since the April update. What fixed it for me after talking with support was to sync the controller with the Kinect instead of the console. Hold down to the sync button on the controller
until the Xbox light flashes continuously and just point it at the Kinect until it syncs. It takes longer this way than syncing with the console, but it solved my problem for the last two weeks since doing it (would occur every 2-3 days before that).
