Windows 10: Gamebar not responding to xbox guide/share buttons on Windows 11 KB5034123

Gamebar will not open or take screenshots when using the guide and share buttons on my xbox series controller on the latest Windows 11 update KB5034123. Also tried running the repair tool in the xbox app but no luck. Buttons are being detected in steams input test, and I can even control the gamebar menu when I open it with Windows+G, just the guide and share buttons don't seem to do anything anymore.
