For some reason, I can not unmute my friend on Discord. The app won’t let me click on the mute button for them, but it works fine for everyone else.

Hey Ryan,

That must be frustrating! Have you tried restarting the app or checking if your friend has any specific settings that might be causing this? Sometimes a quick reinstall can also fix these weird glitches.

Hope this helps!

Hello Ryan, Here are a few troubleshooting steps to try:

  1. Check Discord Settings:
  • Ensure you have the correct permissions and aren’t muted.
  • Review server-specific settings, as some servers may have custom rules or bots affecting permissions.
  1. Restart Discord:
  • A simple restart can often fix temporary glitches.
  1. Check Internet Connection:
  • Switch networks or restart your router if the connection is weak.
  1. Update Discord:
  • Ensure you’re using the latest version to avoid bugs.
  1. Try a Different Voice Channel:
  • Switch channels to see if the issue is specific.
  1. Check Discord Server Status:
  • Look for any reported outages on Discord’s status page.
  1. Verify with Friends:
  • Ask if your friends are having similar audio issues.
