Xbox Status "Online"

I am having issues with the fact that when I play some games from Steam or EA that my status on the Xbox app only shows that I am Online. What makes it more annoying is that this is only the case for some games. To add more confusion, when I play Valheim on my desktop my status shows Online, but when I run it from my laptop it updates to Valehim. No rhyme or reason separates why it updates on my laptop and not on my desktop. This is also the case when I play games I download from the Xbox Game Pass (e.g. Mass Effect Andromeda). I feel like whatever the issue is has to be some small click away but I am not seeing and difference in settings. Part of online gaming is to be involved, but when I’m gaming and no one is aware of what I play it takes that feeling of being involved away.
