Platforms: both Xbox One and Windows 10.

Version:  Current release

Occurring on a multiplayer Realm, and a separate multiplayer world not on realm!

The XP we get from smelting is giving us WAY LESS xp than it should!  It seems XP is not being generated, or not being stored by furnaces (including blast & smoker).

Smelting multiple stacks of meat, ores, blocks, or even kelp, barely yields enough xp for ONE level increase!  Previously, we could get 10-15 levels smelting the same amounts!

Recreate:

Place chest, into hopper, into furnace (or smoker), that is emptied by another hopper into a chest!

Smelt 2-3 stacks of raw cod.

Lock the furnace and smelt another piece of cod.

Remove the last piece of cod and absorb the stored XP!

Results:

The XP is DRASTICALLY lower than it should be!  XP is either not being generated or not being stored!

Expected results:

The player should be getting XP for each item smelted, stored as XP in the furnace!  It seems XP is not being stored or maybe not being generated!
