Microsoft has released a new firmware update for the Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S consoles. This is related to stability improvements.
Many users have reported issues with their Xbox Series X and S controller disconnecting from the console, however, this hasn’t been resolved with the new update. Instead, Microsoft has issued a workaround in the meanwhile.
Here are the details on this new firmware update for the Xbox consoles as covered on the support website.

Known issues
Controllers
We’re aware of an issue in which some Xbox Series X|S controllers are losing connection with the console. If you see this behavior, try reconnecting the controller to the console wirelessly or with a USB cable, or if possible, connecting another controller and then submitting feedback. Then reboot the console and try reconnecting the controller.
Guide
There’s an issue in which the audio mixer may not be adjustable.
My games & apps
Some games might appear with an incorrect “Trial” tag in My games & apps.
Profile color
The incorrect profile color may appear when turning on the console.
This should cover the major changes that are a part of this update. If you are experiencing issues with the controller getting disconnected, try to attempt the workaround given by Microsoft. That should hopefully resolve it.
Xbox One and Series S/X usually use the same system software so the update applies to both the old and new generation consoles. To verify you have the latest version installed, check the system information from the settings menu.
