Discord Audio Player is silent when status is "Playing"

Pretty self-explanatory, really. I'm trying to re-code my Discord audio bot since Discord went and changed their bot API, and despite my best efforts the bot still produces no sound.

Here's the relevant bits of code:

const client = new Discord.Client({
    partials: ["MESSAGE", "CHANNEL", "REACTION"],
    intents: ["GUILDS", "GUILD_MESSAGES", "GUILD_VOICE_STATES"]
});
let connection;
let player;

async function playMusic() {
    player = createAudioPlayer();
    connection = joinVoiceChannel({
        channelId: message.member.voice.channelId,
        guildId: message.guild.id, 
        adapterCreator: message.guild.voiceAdapterCreator
    }).subscribe(player);
    
    /* some code that sets songFile */
    
    let resource = createAudioResource(createReadStream(songFile));
    player.play(resource);
}

Calling this causes the bot to join the voice call, but it plays no sound. It says that the current state is AudioPlayerStatus.Playing, though, so I don't know what's happening there.

I've verified that the filepath for songFile is correct and the resource is successfully created. All the code is nested in try/catch blocks, so I know no errors are being raised. I've also included the intents in case I'm missing one there, but from other questions I've seen on this website GUILD_VOICE_STATES seems to be the key one.

Any help is appreciated!

please visit @discordjs/voice repository, and check Installation section in README.md. In order to play audio, you have to install several packages, one from each group:

Encryption Libraries (npm install):

sodium-native: ^3.3.0 sodium: ^3.0.2 tweetnacl: ^1.0.3 libsodium-wrappers: ^0.7.9

Opus Libraries (npm install):
@discordjs/opus: ^0.4.0 opusscript: ^0.0.7

FFmpeg:

FFmpeg (installed and added to environment) ffmpeg-static: ^4.2.7 (npm install)

Hope it helps someone :)
