How do I get it so my players can hear syrinscape in FGU. I've had them download it and join me, but they still cannot hear it

You can't hear syrinscape "in" FGU - you just run the Syrinscape Online Player as a separate app.

I assume you made them download the Syrinscape Online (https://syrinscape.com/online/) player, not the offline Syrinscape Fantasy player, am I correct?
Here's the setup I use, which is basically what the instructions in the Syrinscape Online page say:
Each one of my players launches FGU and joins my game;
then each one of my players launches Syrinscape Online, and logs in with their Syrinscape account;
if I have new players, or if it's the first time they join my campaign, I go to Syrinscape control panel (https://syrinscape.com/online/cp/), copy the invitation link and pass it to the new players, so they can join my sound campaign;
Then, I open the Syrinscape master interface (https://syrinscape.com/online/master/) on a browser and use that to start the various sounds during the game.

That's it - basically, treat Syrinscape Online and FGU as separate applications, as you would normally, since at the moment FGU does not have a sounds management feature.

If you use Discord for in-game chat, pushing Syrinscape through a Discord bot works really well for me. My players don't have to run any extra software and the sound is great.

This video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZ1FlHRjthc&t=1s) explains how to do it, step-by-step in simple language. And the author is very responsive to questions.

Your mileage may vary, but I'm convinced.

EDIT: There's a forum thread about it here (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?66632-Discord-Bot-for-Syrinscape-Stereo-output-to-discord-using-Discord-Audio-Pipe).

Hi Lo Zeno

Your post is very useful and clear...I am subscribing again after several years to Syrinscape and just wondered if anything has changed from what you posted...before i follow your instructions.

Thanks in advance.

While Syrinscape is still a separate application, there is now an interface in FG for playing via the Web Player.

See documentation here (https://fantasygroundsunity.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/FGCP/pages/2078932993/Using+Sound+Links).
