What the independent test changes
If DeviceOK passes
Audible DeviceOK sound narrows the problem toward Discord output selection, deafen state or app routing.
If DeviceOK fails
No DeviceOK sound means the system/device output path should be fixed first.
Check these in order
- 1
Run DeviceOK left/right audio.
- 2
Check Discord deafen status.
- 3
Select the intended output device in Discord Voice & Video settings.
- 4
Confirm system volume and Bluetooth/headset routing.
Retest instead of guessing
After changing one setting, run the independent DeviceOK test again before moving to a more invasive step. This preserves evidence and avoids changing multiple variables at once.
