How to Stream Audio on Discord for Linux (Soundux)

  • Опубликовано: 19 авг 2024
  • Found out about Soundux through one of the Linux subreddits I follow. This application can of course be used to record both application audio, and your mic in SimpleScreenRecorder, as well as Zoom if you want to pull off a funny.
    Hope this helps. Questions, and subsequent community help in the comments are welcome.
    Edit: Soundux is also available as a package in Debian, as well as in the AUR. Flatpak is more universal, but use what floats your boat.

    Amazingly straight forward solution! Thank you for the title, it was super easy for me to search it

    Additional tips if the audio is breaking when you are streaming a movie:
    Disable Echo Cancellation, Noise Reduction, and Automatic Gain Control.
    Although this can worsen your mic quality, my own solution was connecting my android phone via bluetooth, sounds from phone should passthrough the linux desktop. Then just open a live voice playback (I use VoicefX)

    For some reason there is pretty much no reviews, discussions, or videos on Soundux despite it being around for so long, I usually like to look at the features of programs before I try them myself. EDIT: oh right because they announced a major rewrite 2 years ago and abandoned the project...

      Damn, really? I'm sorry to hear, I still use it for soundboard purposes (I clearly didn't know what that was back when I recorded this vid xD) and of course the audio-sharing. I hope a new & old team refine the project should the former have the drive, motivating the old team to potentially join back in.

    Hi, for some reason Soundux let me choose an output but when I try to choose a passthrough it says Error: failed to load passthrough [or sth like that]
    I don't know why it is; I have overlay ON.
    The one thing I can tell that looks different in my screen than yours is that my STOP bottom is always gray, it doesn't turn green ...

    I needed to use Timeshift to return the audio back to my mic default settings after using this. Stopping didn't really do that on it's own. Please make a full guide how to revert mic settings after using this, because Timeshift takes a lot of time.

    • @bsdims

      That's strange, did you look in either the system or Discord's mic settings too?

      @@kidcrumple2906 I don't know about soundux, but you can should do that with an audio patchbay like Carla/cadence from kxstudio (if you use pulseaudio) or helvum/qpwgraph (if you're using pipewire). They are the alternative for voicemeter banana (routing audio part). Well, Carla can also use plugins. You can use vst and LV plugins with Carla. Unfa has a video about it on his channel. I am using pipewire, so I prefer to use helvum or qpwgraph.

      Does the program launch for you? If not, you may be on pipewire and may need to switch to pulseaudio. That’s how I fixed it on my end.
