Xbox Companion App and Game Bar Issues

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.

Ive tried the xbox game bar, xbox companion app, and xbox game pass apps, none have worked

In the post you read, the author suggests that you follow these steps to fix an issue with party invites in the Xbox Game Bar for PC:

1. You disable the Game Bar in the Settings app.

2. You open Powershell with administrator privileges.

3. You copy a command line into Powershell.
You press Enter to run the command line.

4. You open the Xbox Companion app.

5. You enable notifications for party and game invites in the Xbox Companion app.

The command line that you must copy into Powershell is the following:

get-appxpackage *gamingoverlay* | remove-appxpackage

This command line tells Powershell to find all application packages that contain the string "gamingoverlay" and then delete them. In this case, the string "gamingoverlay" refers to the Xbox Game Bar.

By removing the Game Bar, you are restoring the Game Bar's default settings. This can solve some problems, like the one you're experiencing with party invitations.

Once you've removed the Game Bar, you need to re-enable it in the Xbox Companion app. To do this, open the Xbox Companion app and go to Settings > Notifications. Next, make sure “Party Invitations” and “Games” are enabled.

Following these steps may resolve issues with party invitations on your Xbox Game Bar on PC.
