issues with xbox console companion for pc / xbox game bar

In the Xbox console companion app on my PC, there is no option for voice invites like on my phone, I get the invites through game bar but still nothing through the Xbox console companion app

Player30219361 is showing on any Xbox game on PC on either single-player or multiplayer games, it is also showing on Xbox Console Companion, but not on Xbox app or game bar

I am experiencing a similar issue. Almost as if my account was hacked. My friends list is empty and when my buddy on his xbox attempts to click my gamertag he gets a message that says "opps that didn't work." I also could not sign into any of the pc xbox apps (console companion, new console companion, game bar) and it was the same across my cell phone, my pc, and my xbox.

Verify that you have the notifications active in the "Xbox console companion" app and in the "Game Bar".

Also check that they are active for these applications in the PC settings > System > Notifications.

I assume you're using the Xbox Game Bar to join parties? If so, could you try using either the Xbox Beta app, or the Xbox Console Companion app and see if you have the same volume issues? Hopefully it's just a Game Bar issue.
