Cannot join voice channel correctly

[ryanbester]

I am trying to connect to a voice channel using ChannelVoiceJoin. This has been working correctly but when I executed the command for the bot to join the voice channel the bot hangs. I had a look and the ChannelVoiceJoin doesn't appear to ever return.

I increased the LogLevel to Debug and observed that there was no opcode 4 (Session Description) being received from onEvent in voice.go. Oddly, when I changed the voice region, to somewhere such as Brazil, opcode 4 was correctly being received and the ChannelVoiceJoin returned correctly.

I'm not sure if this is a problem with the library or just my internet connection. I don't have another internet connection to test, but it's strange how certain voice regions work correctly.

This is my code:

vc, err := s.ChannelVoiceJoin(i.GuildID, vcId, false, false)
if err != nil {
_ = SendErrorResponseEdit(s, i, "Error joining", "Failed to connect to voice channel.")
return
}

channel, err := s.Channel(vcId)
if err != nil {
_ = SendErrorResponseEdit(s, i, "Error joining", "Invalid voice channel.")
return
}

_, _ = s.InteractionResponseEdit(i.Interaction, &discordgo.WebhookEdit{
Embeds: &[]*discordgo.MessageEmbed{
	{
		Title:       "Joined voice channel",
		Description: fmt.Sprintf("Joined `%s`", channel.Name),
		Color:       core.AppContext.Config.EmbedColor,
	},
},
})

Go: 1.18.6, discordgo: 0.27.0
I have tried on Windows and Linux and experience the same behaviour.

Please could anyone advise me as to why this may be the case? And if it is maybe just my internet connection.

This seems to be a known issue, and is a breaking change introduced by Discord. See discord-jda/JDA@4bb15ef for a potential solution ?

This should be fixed in v0.27.1. However, looking at the dates, the change should have not been rolled out.

I had the same problem, but after searching a very long time, I have found out that, when i was using go run, it was not working... Then I have tried to build my project with go build, and it worked.

It was Avast, who blocked the connection. For me turning it off and using go build helped.
