trying to establish a connection always fail for timeout while waiting status to be ready

[dahool]

I'm trying to establish a connection to a voice channel. I can see the bot actually connects to the channel, but it always get aborted after timeout because the connection never switch to ready, it always stay at signalling

async function connectToChannel(channel) {
  const connection = joinVoiceChannel({
    channelId: channel.id,
    guildId: channel.guild.id,
    adapterCreator: channel.guild.voiceAdapterCreator,
  });
  try {
    // this always fail with timeout
    await entersState(connection, VoiceConnectionStatus.Ready, 30_000);
    return connection;
  } catch (error) {
    connection.destroy();
    throw error;
  }
}

Further details:

• @discordjs/voice version: 0.6.0
• Node.js version: 16.6.1
• Operating system: Win/Linux
• Priority this issue should have – please be realistic and elaborate if possible: HIGH

You need GUILD_VOICE_STATES intent also.

Add that and try again.

Adding GUILD_VOICE_STATES worked. Could that be added to the documentation please?

@dahool

discord.js docs states very clearly about this. As discordjs/voice is a separate package, so it doesn't mention separately.

Please close this issue.

true, but since is a separate package with its own documentation, it would be nice if it is documented there too.
