Bot Joins Voice Channel but Doesn't Play Audio File (ogg)

I managed to get the bot to join the vc but it just sits there. Here's the code:

const resource = createAudioResource('./sounds', theNumber + '.ogg');
currentPlayer = (currentPlayer+1) % NUM_PlAYERS;
const channel = message.member.voice.channel;
const connection = joinVoiceChannel({
    channelId: channel.id,
    guildId: message.guild.id,
    adapterCreator: message.guild.voiceAdapterCreator,
});
const sub = connection.subscribe(players[currentPlayer]);
connection.on(VoiceConnectionStatus.Ready, () => {
     players[currentPlayer].play(resource);
});

const resource = createAudioResource('./sounds', theNumber + '.ogg');
currentPlayer = (currentPlayer+1) % NUM_PlAYERS;
const channel = message.member.voice.channel;
const connection = joinVoiceChannel({
    channelId: channel.id,
    guildId: message.guild.id,
    adapterCreator: message.guild.voiceAdapterCreator,
});
const sub = connection.subscribe(players[currentPlayer]);
connection.on(VoiceConnectionStatus.Ready, () => {
     players[currentPlayer].play(resource);
});

(In this case theNumber is 1, but it will vary based on user input. The ogg sound files are in ./sound/ directory) I have several audio players because I hope to play multiple audio streams at once, not sure if it'll actually work though Here's my package.json:

{
  "dependencies": {
    "@discordjs/voice": "^0.16.0",
    "discord.js": "^14.13.0",
    "dotenv": "^16.3.1",
    "express": "^4.18.2",
    "ffmpeg-static": "^5.2.0",
    "libsodium-wrappers": "^0.7.13"
  }
}

show your client intents and your folder structure please also i think you are missing one of these dependencies @discordjs/opus or opusscript pretty sure you need at least one of those @discordjs/opus is recommended

the_lego_brosOP•15mo ago

Sure

const client = new Client({
    intents: [
        GatewayIntentBits.Guilds,
        GatewayIntentBits.GuildMessages,
        GatewayIntentBits.MessageContent,
        GatewayIntentBits.GuildVoiceStates
    ],
    partials: ["CHANNEL"]
});

const client = new Client({
    intents: [
        GatewayIntentBits.Guilds,
        GatewayIntentBits.GuildMessages,
        GatewayIntentBits.MessageContent,
        GatewayIntentBits.GuildVoiceStates
    ],
    partials: ["CHANNEL"]
});

I installed @discordjs/opus and the issue persists

I'm playing the audio file from an event in the events folder and the sound is from the sounds folder

ShompiFlen•15mo ago

okay so here why is there a comma separating the path const resource = createAudioResource('./sounds', theNumber + '.ogg'); the first argument should be the entire path to the file that comma is separating it

the_lego_brosOP•15mo ago

Oh, that's because I had a path.join statement which I removed That was the issue I also had to add a / to replace the path.join
