once again irritated at Discord ignoring Do Not Disturb and playing notification sounds during a meeting, this bug has been there for years, do you think anyone will ever bother to fix it?
I truly apologize for all the hassle and inconvenience! First, can you try restarting your device then reinstall the app following these steps here?: https://support.discordapp.com/hc/en-us/articles/360022082931--macOS-Install-and-Updating-Errors
Be sure to delete the following folders, otherwise, you may run into issues during the installation process:
- ~/Library/Application Support/Discord
- /Library/Application Support/Discord
After that, could you try temporarily disabling your firewalls and virus scanners, and any other form of security/antivirus/adblock software, and then try reinstalling the app one more time?
If that doesn't work, would you be able to run a scan of your computer for any viruses, malware, etc using Malwarebytes > clear threats > restart computer > relaunch Discord? You can grab Malwarebytes right here: https://www.malwarebytes.com/
Hopefully one of those solutions works for you! If you're still running into this issue, try our beta, version of the desktop client to see if it helps? https://discordapp.com/api/download/ptb?platform=osx
Finally, if PTB has this issue as well, can you try our alpha client, Discord Canary? The latest version of Canary is available here: https://discordapp.com/api/download/canary?platform=osx
Give all this a shot and let me know how it goes!
followed all of this1 and guess what
it affects every single version and also the version in browser
it's because they've designed a defective notification system that plays the sound from the browser page rather than via the system notification API 🥹
stay tuned as I try to convince them of this and that this fucking sucks

okay I didn't install fucking malware bytes but they don't need to know that
