This was on an Xbox series X
In multiple incidents in situations involving commands and multiplayer (custom multiplayer maps, servers, etc.), some strange glitches happen. Controllers randomly disconnect from the console without turning off. Sometimes they are able to reconnect after about ~30 seconds, but sometimes they do not reconnect. Also, if the player was moving a joy stick when it happens, the character continues to move, even when the console acknowledges that the controller was disconnected. The console sidebar cannot be accessed when this happens. The screen occasionally turns off and flickers during this, and often before this. The only solution is to physically turn of the Xbox via the power button located on the front. However, it does not fully turn off. (It is set to the eco mode where it does a full boot) It tends to happen more and more often until the world is completely closed, and it starts about 2 minutes into the game. One time, it started right after someone signed in on split screen multiplayer. It seems to be much worse the more players are playing on split screen.

Update 2: The glitch has expanded. It happens much faster now. During the glitch, strange mechanical noises can be heard coming from the console. The glitch now continues outside of the game. When it is outside of the game, there is still flickering, and controllers are not able to find and pair to the console, even when connected via USB. Additionally, this occurs for most versions of Minecraft, such as when playing on an older map. Now that the glitch has expanded, it could effectively brick consoles, making it important to fix as soon as possible.
Is this still an issue in the latest version? If so, can you add it to the affected versions?

If your ticket does not look like the example given here, then it's likely to be closed as incomplete.
This may need to be reopened. The bug reappeared. It appears at random, and involves flickering at all times during gameplay, and controllers randomly disconnecting and being unable to reconnect until the console is restarted. Usually if one controller disconnects, all controllers will disconnect. It also sometimes results in the console crashing, and only flickering has been observed in single player.
EDIT: Added more glitches that happen
Update: The glitch has been less prominent, but occasionally the game will state that controllers have been disconnected, even when they are not. The only solution for this is to exit the word and then enter back in, which is very frustrating as it happens every five minutes or so.
