Troubleshoot

Audio not playing

@performanc/voice doesn't modify the audio stream in any way except for the encryption which is mandatory for Discord voice connections. If the audio is not playing, it is most likely an issue with the audio stream itself. Make sure the audio stream is valid and is not empty.

The audio stream must be a opus encoded audio stream, 48kHz, 2 channels, 20ms frame size. If the audio stream is not in this format, it must be converted to this format before being played.

Error: Session no longer valid

This error can occur even when the data is correct. This happens when Discord doesn't recognize that the last websocket session has been closed. This can be fixed by waiting for a few seconds before trying to connect again.
