XR15 remote gives error sound when pressing Voice button

I have the XR-15 UQ remote and most of the time it works perfectly.  But around 10% or 20% of the time when I press the voice button it makes an error sound instead of the usual beep to tell you to begin speaking.  The TV will show "Listening" and then after a second, "Press and hold again".   It may do this 2 or 3 times in a row and then finally make the standard beep sound and then accept my voice command.

 

I swapped out the remote from another Xfinity box in the house and still have the problem just with this one TV.  If it matters, it's the family room TV with the XG1V3 DVR box.  So two different remotes have the same issue with this one box and both remotes work fine with another box.  Seems like the problem is with this particular box.

 

I have rebooted the box, reset to defaults, etc.  Any Ideas?  Should I try and get a replacement box?

I am having this issue as well with my XR 15, I've tried rebooting the box (through the software), pulling the plug and rebooting the box, replacing the batteries (twice), nothing has fixed this issue! I do not have a 2nd remote to see if it's just this remote, but seems like others have tried. I can also confirm the "App" does indeed work, as the other user suggested, through the wifi net, but still not the actual RF remote. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

I am sorry to hear you are having issues with your XR 15 remote, and I appreciate you taking the time to do all the self troubleshooting you have done thus far! Have you already attempted to pair your remote to your cable box again by following the steps listed here https://comca.st/34Hkrty;
