FGC & Discord? Audio Focus robbed.

**Laerun** · October 29th, 2019, 23:01

I have noticed that the Unity platform takes focus away from my headset and mic when using Discord with Fantasy Grounds. I have played around with the run as admin settings. If this is going to be an issue for most, we might need to find or use an entirely different communication platform, I noticed the same thing with Alpha as well.

You might want to look at the Windows setting that controls window focus. Something like activate window focus with mouse/pointer. I can help you find it if needed.

Yeah, if this does not work this will be very, very bad...For most of the community.

That might be a temporary fix, but it's not a permanent solution.

Do NOT run as admin.

Neither apps are, I have tried both, and both not, and it is still taking audio focus away.

Running discord as admin fixed the problem for me.

I will try this method then.

I don't have the discord app installed, but on Windows 10 using the discord webapp through FireFox I'm able to keep a continuous audio check going as I startup FGU and click around in a campaign for a minute. Discord via Firefox does not lose the ability to capture my voice at any point.

Thanks for the report. I've filed as FGU-633 to investigate if there is anything specific in the way we use audio that might grab audio focus.
