Windows 10: Built-in Windows 10 / Xbox Game Bar Broadcasting not working

I've used many hours to get the native Windows 10 / Xbox Game Bar to start broadcasting on Mixer to no avail. Whatever I do, I get the same error message: "Something went wrong. Try broadcasting again later."

Before I got to this point, I wasn't even able to get the "sign in" buttons working in Xbox Game Bar's settings. Luckily, I was able to fix the issue by downloading the Xbox app from Microsoft Store. After that I was able to use the buttons and sign in to Mixer using Xbox Game Bar. I wonder, are there more dependencies I might be missing?

Any ideas?
