    Latest update broke Google home and Alexa control


    My console auto updated yesterday. It's now running 10.0.19041.2447. As of that update, my Google home and Alexa control over the console no longer works.

    I went into the console settings, and the Settings>Devices & Streaming>Digital Assistants box was unchecked after the update, so I checked it.

    It still doesn't work.

    I've tried removing and re-adding it in Google home app. It still doesn't work.

    I've tried unlinking and relinking my Xbox account in Google home. It still doesn't work.

    I've tried power cycling. It still doesn't work.

    In the Google home app, it says my box is offline. It isn't. It's on. It also says my Xbox is not responding to Google home. Well, that's true... It certainly isn't.

    Same goes for Alexa. It saw the Xbox as soon as I checked the digital assistant box, but every time I try to use Alexa to control it, it keeps saying "sorry, something's wrong. To control the device, try disabling the skill and reenabling it". I've done that. Multiple times.

    It still doesn't work.

    kinect

    You can also use Cortana on Windows 10 to control your Xbox in exactly the same way you would with Alexa or Google Home speaker.

    XBOX ONE AND GOOGLE HOME CONECTION

    Alexa and Cortana support are currently in BETA. Not sure how much it’ll integrate (if at all) with Google Home.

    Google Home integration with xbox one

    The Alexa skill is nice. I'm not sure if it is up to Microsoft or Google to make it work with a Google home.

    I would go to https://xboxideas.uservoice.com and suggest it there.

    Controller turns console on then turns off

    I've experienced this too with an Elite Model 1 controller; though I can't confirm anything else.

    Alternative ways of turning the Xbox on include Kinect, remote, Amazon Alexa, or Google Home; these may offer somewhat of a temporary workaround.
