Discord Streaming Google Chrome No Audio
I used to do movie nights on discord using the screenshare, and I tried to do a private screenshare but it does not work. Wondering how I could actually fix any audio or is this just a bug. I have seen others struggling with the same thing on a youtube video. Wondering if Discord could add in there own kind of movie night system, just implement it into the streaming device or allow streaming to work with browsers.

I don't have an answer but I would like to just say me and my friends have been having the same problem for weeks. Only one of my friends audio worked but then he updated google started streaming again and it stopped working I contacted support and me and the person working support did literally everything we could think of, I don't know why or how it happened but it honestly sucks.

it's just a bug
they know about it and are working on it, but it's been a few weeks
they say you can use other browsers instead but i've tried edge, firefox, and opera and none of them work either

I don't think they want this feature become available.
I think they deliberately choose to disable the sound on any browser.
Don't have the source on the matter, but they wanted people to use the screen-share only and strictly for games.
This is why nobody can hear sound via browser but play any game and it's perfectly fine.
Recent updates shown they allow streaming in servers now, they aren't going to let people screen-share on browsers for movies etc.
The question now is how long wil they hold it up until people actually use a different application like Skype, which still works perfectly fine for screen-sharing and audio, even today as we speak.
those are the rumors as far as i know,
but this is my thought on this subject, let me know what you guys think.
(yes i also want screen-share audio back asap)-2 -
If they allow the use to share an application window then I would think it is a bug.

This is most likely a bug because me and one of my friends can't hear anything but when my other friend does it it works just fine

Just for the idea that it isn't allowed so that is why it is disabled I already contacted support and they had no explanation of such the support guy I talked to saw it as a bug too, he only mentioned the possibility of the websites themselves countering the streaming but that obviously isn't it since Opera still works for most people it has to be something that is in most of the browsers and discord not connecting

they fixed it with the most recent update

It is not fixed at all. None of the proposed fixes worked to have audio play from Google Chrome

Much like how not everyone had the problem to begin with it didn't fix for anyone and by him saying it worked for him and him having no reason to lie why would you say it isn't fixed like that's a fact it fixed for some read the patch notes it fixed for me and they will work on fixing for others because obviously this in an issue.

If it’s not working for some people, then it is by definition not fixed. An irregularly encountered glitch is still a glitch. Also, please use punctuation.
The discord staff claimed to have fixed it with the update. I’m here so they know it hasn’t really been fixed.

you said at all.... and im not gonna start using proper punctuation for a single message i ended up forgetting about 5 seconds later

it still sometimes does not work for me
however, i've been able to fix it usually by both leaving the call and restarting chromealso it will not show that it's transmitting audio from the screenshare (the green box around your icon) unless you're actively playing audio from chrome
if it's actually just not working for you at all, then idk what to say
i had been checking to see if this issue was fixed almost every day for like a month straight. i suppose i should've specified that it was fixed for me and not just say 'they fixed it'. sorry if that wording really upset you.

I am here to bring more attention to this.. Really just want to watch movies with people i cant meet up with irl..

yep, still having issues trying to watch netflix with friends. sounds working only 1 out of 10 times

i too am having this problem, but its not for streaming movies. Browser games is what i like to show to friends for fun and thats affected as well.

aaand the problem is back, they switched it back to no sound again for google chrome

I might be a little late but say you're trying to watch Netflix on Chrome. If you pop the tab out so that it's separate from other tabs it should work. It does for me atleast.

Ladies and Gentlemen, i found the solution to it.
but... if i share it they might rig it too.. discord staff isn't exactly co-operative1 -
Ah hell with it, if they will do something i wil just go back to skype if ever.
Skarrum, let me guess.. only on browser it doesn't seem to work AND reinstalling doesn't work either.. correct?
(aside all the typical check volume etc.)0 -
Everytime when someone join to watch my streaming in discord, my discord keeps restarting itself, disconnected and then there's a little annoying pop up in my stream it says "Hey, something went wrong and we couldn't stream the sound from your game" I'd try fix every single way and it didn't work, my friends can stream smooth perfectly but my stream can't?
(Please fix this as fast as you can.)1 -
Kurao, make you my waifu , and i shall fix the problem for you.
