I have the same problem but it does work and let you play when your signed out. Just sign out, launch minecraft, click play sign in, then it starts syncing but it does take forever so click cancel, and then click play and it’ll sign you in but if you launch your world, in the pause menu it’ll say that your Microsoft account was disconnected and your not able to join friends. but if you just want to play the game alone that’s fine!
