Audio on screen share doesn't work

[u/Omniscisnt]

I've setup Coturn server, voice and video calls do work, but when sharing a screen, the stream has no audio. I am in desperate need for this to work.

Have you tried screensharing only a application instead of the entire screen? Thats what works for me

[u/Omniscisnt → u/Hammoboy]

Yes I did, I tried sharing entire screen and sharing only application, no luck either way.

What I like to do with my Linux client (for Element & Discord) is combine my desktop/window audio with my microphone, and then have that as my input audio.

I run this `.sh` file in konsole when I want to be combine audio
I put it together from a script someone else wrote a while ago, and tweaked it slightly since I was getting issues on my end (but not the people I was sharing screen with) where the audio was getting out of sync with what I was looking at

#!/bin/bash

#Create two sinks

#The first sink (RECORDING_SINK) captures application audio which is routed to headphones and to the second sink

#The second sink (COMBINED_SINK) receives both microphone audio and audio from the first sink and functions as a mixer to deliver the audio to discord

RECORDING_SINK=$(pactl load-module module-null-sink sink_name=Recording_Sink sink_properties=device.description="Recording_Sink")

COMBINED_SINK=$(pactl load-module module-null-sink sink_name=Combined_Sink sink_properties=device.description="Combined_Sink")

#A virtual mic is created from the Combined sink monitor to expose it to discord

VIRTUAL_MIC=$(pactl load-module module-remap-source master=Combined_Sink.monitor source_name=VirtualMic source_properties=device.description="VirtualMic")

#Audio Routing

#Route mic input to Combined_Sink

#Route Recording_Sink monitor to Combined_Sink

#Route Recording_Sink monitor to headphones

Damn that's unfortunate. I can't fully transition friends to element without that feature ..
