Discord Api bot not joining the voice channel consistently

I have made a bot that joins a voice channel whenever a discord member joins said channel, but sometimes when the member leaves and joins back I get the error that the bot is already connected, so I added the is_connected function to check if the bot is already connected before attempting to join. For some reason this function works only half the time, if I join and leave the call multiple times eventually it just stops joining and it leaves no error code, it just stops. This is the code:

@client.event
async def on_ready():
  print("Logged in as {0.user}".format(client))


@client.event
async def on_voice_state_update(member, before, after):

  if not before.channel and after.channel and member.id == 450333776485285919 or member.id == 232855365082021890 or member.id == 282234566066962433 or member.id == 256759154524291074:
    channel = client.get_channel(988050675604803648)
    await is_connected()
    

@client.event
async def is_connected():
  channel = client.get_channel(988050675604803648)
  voice_client = discord.utils.get(client.voice_clients)
    
  if(voice_client == None):
    await channel.connect()
  else:
    print("is connected:")

Did i use the function wrong ?

You created an entire function for is_connected() which isn't entirely necessary. You need to use that event within the on_voice_state_update to check if the bot is already connected to that current voice channel.

@client.event
async def on_voice_state_update(member, before, after):

  if not before.channel and after.channel and member.id == 450333776485285919 or member.id == 232855365082021890 or member.id == 282234566066962433 or member.id == 256759154524291074:
    channel = client.get_channel(988050675604803648)

    if client.voice.is_connected():
      return print("already connected")
    
    await channel.connect()
