Discord: "Waiting for Voice Server"

Waiting for Voice Server

This one is on Discord's side, not yours. It is rare and usually means Discord's voice servers are having a wider service problem.

Is Discord down right now? Operational: 18 problem reports in the last hour. If it were down for everyone, this error could come from there; right now it looks normal.
Fix it
