glossaries-extra does not recognise glossaries commands

I have a question regarding the glossaries package. In my thesis I use this package to create a list of symbols/nomenclature. Without the glossaries package and only using glossaries-extra everything is fine, however when adding the former TeX returns TeX capacity exceeded, sorry [parameter stack size=10000]. RequirePackage. In the documentation it is stated that glossaries-extra requires glossaries but for some reason it thows an error for me. Removing usepackage{glossaries} resolves the error. However in this case, command provided by the package such as glossarysection are not recognised and thus throws Undefined control sequence. renewcommand*{glossarysection}[2] when attempting the following (which should work according to the glossaries-extra manual (page 192)):

documentclass{article}
usepackage{glossaries}
usepackage[symbols,stylemods={tree},record]{glossaries-extra}
glsxtrsetgrouptitle{latin}{Latin letters}
GlsXtrLoadResources[
src={numbers.bib},
type=symbols,
group={letters},% assign group label
set-widest,% needed for 'alttree' styles
save-locations=false
]
begin{document}
printunsrtglossary[type=symbols,style=alttreegroup,printunsrtglossaryunitsetup{section}%
    renewcommand*{glossarysection}[2][]{subsection*{Summary}]
end{document}
