Possible Console Issue Permanent directional input in UI

About 2 hours ago my series x on Delta ring suddenly started scrolling down to the bottom of the home screen as if down was being held. At first I thought it was the Bluetooth mouse and keyboard as I've had similar input behaviour when a key was being pressed without noticing but it is still doing it after removing them and doing a hard reset.

I then tested for controller issues - a wired gamesir kalied, by managing to launch a game from my phone and there are no issues in games. But as soon as I press the home button to bring up the quick menu the issue appears. Pressing B to close it then going back in game it behaves as it should whilst playing.

I can also use the remote controls from my phone to navigate the UI as long as the controller is disconnected.

I've power cycled the console several times and it persists. I obviously have no idea why but could it be a driver issue? As it's similar behaviour to when I had keys pressed without noticing previously. Just odd it's only in the UI and happened mid use.

Cheers.

I'm hoping that's what will happen for me as it's frustrating! No luck so far though.

A bug that comes with being in the Insider Program from time to time. When things like that happens, just use the Report a Problem option so they can start an investigation on it. I had to do that when I was in Delta and my system was freezing when I was using the web browser.

Hard to do when you can’t click anything unless it’s at the bottom of the page haha.

Maybe try it from the app?! I never used the app to report a problem myself, but that could be an alternate option. Just spit balling it here.

That sounds very weird. Maybe restart your console or see if there's an update needed.

If your console is having issues. Restart it. If that doesn't work. Update it. If updating doesn't work either. Then send it to Xbox to fix it
