Its not a roblox issue, I tried to reproduce the bug myself, what I found is
When your running the sound via scripts, the id of the sound instance should be rbxassetid://1 not just 1, and when you try to play with sound id 1 as 1, then this bug occurs, I tried with lots of variations to reproduce this bug with rbxassetid, it does not get reproduced

I hate to resurrect a dead thread, but this is happening to me as well. It seems to only be in one place where I copied the Sound assets to. It works find in the source place, but not in the destination place. No idea why. Interesting to note though is that if I play the sound from the explorer, it works with no problems. And I do have rbxassetid:// as part of the URL for the asset ID.
Besides this, I’ve been seeing other errors in Studio too. HTTP errors 500, 502, and 503 are the main ones for getting package permissions and such. They are having some serious networking/server issues. It could be load related as Roblox is quite popular and their capacity could be at its limit.

With the audio update, audio will only work if you uploaded it and it’s your game that your using it in

Not entirely true. If you buy it from the marketplace, then it’s on your account, and should work in game. Most of the assets are free. It’s things that are labeled with the music tag. The sound effects aren’t affected by this from my experience (I also read a blog post about that too somewhere.).

Bysides sound effects your incorrect, you still need permission for audio whether you bought them or not.
For example before the audio update I got all the audio I needed into my inventory, and they don’t work now.
That is something that I would contact Roblox support about. If you pay for the assets (even if they are free), you should have permission to use them.
Well this is how roblox is stopping stolen audio. It strictly says you can use audio in your game that is either :
Created by you
Less than 6 seconds (sound effect)
Given permissions by the audio uploader
That last bit is asinine because if you can’t get a hold of the person who uploaded it, then how are you going to get permission? Now if I pay money and buy an asset, and then Roblox tells me that I can’t use it because I need permission, and I can’t get a hold of the uploader, I am going to demand my money back.
The act of going on the market place and buying the audio (free or otherwise) should be positive confirmation that you have permission to use it. I don’t think they thought this all the way through.
This is because people can just copy the asset ID and use the audio whether they bought it or not.
So as of now unless you have been given permission OR you set the option of “sharing” to public, you can’t use it
(But obviously the sharing option has not been enabled yet and we still have no clue when roblox will allow us to share publicly)
It’s interesting to note that I’m getting errors on audio that I have uploaded, that I own the copyrights to. Which leads me to believe that they are having some sort of network/server problem.
Did you grant permissions of your audio to your game?
Usually when publishing a game it now shows a popup screen which lets you choose whether audio will work or not
Yes. Most of the time it works, but sometimes, I get an error when it loads.
yo subi mi primer musica que quiero poner en mi juego pero me sale Failed to load sound rbxassetid://11194847063: Unable to download sound data
como saber si esa cancion tiene copyright?

Yep! it happened to me as well, but not only with sounds but with my Content Provider so now my games and studio are having trouble loading, this started for me a week ago and I’m still trying to find a way to fix it… I’ve tried to everything such as clearing my http folder for Roblox and/or wiping Roblox and all it’s files off of my pc.

2 reasons why this is happening:
-
you are using an outdated version of studio deleting and uninstalling should fix it
-
the sound id was banned/taken down due to copywrite, if u made the songs/sounds yourself then check to see if u can view them. i had a similar issue where i hired a sound designer to add music to my game and they used copywritten music, about 2 weeks later all the songs were banned and my output just spammed “unable to load sound data” to fix just delete the sound id’s and start over
.
i would recommend just making the audio yourself

I wrote a script to find and fix these when all other methods fail.
You just replace the asset IDs with yours and can run it right inside studio.
It outputs the full file path to that asset ID.
They made a “ViewSounds” plugin but it still doesn’t find them all.
