ChannelTimeoutException: Unable to connect to <voice_channel_name> as it exceeded the timeout of 30.0 seconds.

[Midorina]

Hello,

Since last week my bot is unable to detect that it has connected to the voice channel. When I execute the respective command, the bot joins the voice channel but halts for 30 seconds. After that the following exception with the stacktrace is thrown:

I have discord.py[voice] 2.4.0 and wavelink 3.4.1. What could be the issue? Thanks.

[EvieePy]

This could happen due to a few reasons.

Possibly your bot does not have permission to view and connect to the channel, you should always check this first.

You may be overriding the voice state update or voice server update events which is preventing wavelink from seeing that is has connected.

Otherwise I would try connecting to another channel and/or region, and if you can provide debug wavelink logs

[Midorina]

Hi,

Thanks for the quick reply. My bot has administrator permissions and it does connect to the channel.

Regarding the voice state, I only have a listener for it in my logging cog:

    @commands.Cog.listener()
    async def on_voice_state_update(self, member: discord.Member,
                                    before: discord.VoiceState | None,
                                    after: discord.VoiceState | None):
        await self.base_logging_func(LoggedEvents.VOICE_STATE_UPDATE, member, before, after)

Hi, could you please try installing wavelink from github and trying again? It should install version 3.5.0

Could you then provide the 30 seconds before an 60 seconds after attempting to connect worth of logs. You can put them here: https://mystb.in
