[MCPE-163023] Xbox: No response when pressing some or all buttons on the controller

Mojang Studios Note

Thank you for your patience while we continue to work on addressing the issue raised here. Please be assured we are actively looking into a solution and apologize for any inconvenience caused.

From the comments, it appears that it can occur when other devices are connected to your console; unplugging or disconnecting any devices and then restarting your controller might be a workaround.

Please remember that this is not a support forum. If you want to discuss this among yourselves, please use other sites, such as Discord or Reddit. If you want to discuss it with Mojang, you should contact the Community Management team on Discord or their Twitter accounts. Comments here should provide new information for the developers, and we also welcome sharing workarounds with each other, but excess chatter will be removed.

The game loads to the menu and all the buttons on the controller work except the A button so I can't select anything. Controller works on Xbox menu and other games. Tried other controller, same issues. Tried holding down power button to shut down and unplugging console for a few hours, same. Reinstalled the game (twice), same
