Digital Assistant is sending commands to the wrong Xbox after latest update.

Well, Cortana is no more for Kinect. That feature was removed like around the previous update.

Exactly, here is the information for the official patch notes:

Hey Cortana, it’s been real

With the October update, Cortana will no longer be available on Xbox, except as the digital assistant on the Harmon Kardon Invoke intelligent speaker.

However, voice interaction will still be possible for those with a Kinect sensor, using the Xbox voice commands. For a list of original voice commands, see

Xbox voice commands with Kinect.

Any device with Amazon Alexa can also be set up to use voice commands with your Xbox. To see how, visit

This issue must be related to the Harmony Remote (or any IR remote?). If I use voice commands, the Xbox One sends them with out problem. But if I use the Harmony, the onscreen display from the Xbox One shows the button I pressed, but doesn't send the command.
This is very strange, definitely a bug in the latest update of Xbox One.

I don't think this is an STB issue, since all of the DirecTv boxes use the same IR commands.
