Roblox AudioDeviceOutput Parents different?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Hi everyone. It’s late at night, and I’ve been pulling my hair out because Roblox is deciding to be funky with me today. I have 2 computers testing a game right now so I can toy around with voice chat. I’ve been toying around with custom voice chat stuff and stumbled across something insanely weird.

Acknowledge the following code:

local Voice = {}
Voice.Connections = {}

local Camera = workspace.CurrentCamera
local Events = game.ReplicatedStorage.Events

local function CreateVoiceFX()
	
	task.wait(5)
	
	for _,v in pairs(game:GetDescendants()) do
		if v:IsA("AudioDeviceOutput") then
			print(v.Parent,v.Parent.Parent,v.Parent.Parent.Parent)
		end
	end
	
	-- ...
end

Voice.Setup = function()
	
	CreateVoiceFX()
	
	-- ...
end

Voice.Dismantle = function()
	for _,Connection in pairs(Voice.Connections) do
		Connection:Disconnect()
	end
end

return Voice

That print statement is printing (“Wire AudioListener Camera”) for one player, and (“SoundService Ugc nil”) for another. It is seriously messing with my ability to develop because it is inconsistent across players.

What is going on here???
