In the update, there are a few fixes carried out. It includes the crashing Settings and the issue about the Audio Setup Wizard tones that used to play persistently even after you closed it.

On the other hand, Xbox also mentioned that while the other issues listed in the past Xbox Insider Release Notes are still present, the Xbox engineers are working on them. Some of these issues are:

  • random controller disconnection from the console
  • Razer Turret Xbox button not accessing the Guide
  • audio mixer’s chat/game audio level adjustment failure
  • inefficient HDMI-CEC
  • missing disc-based title icon on the dashboard
  • wrong console resolution when on boot]

Xbox provided some workarounds and notes to alleviate the problems in relation to the remaining issues. It also encourages the users to keep reporting problems while assuring that its engineers and the entire team are investigating and working on possible solutions.
