          @molubabu You are amazing, you just helped me solve two problems at once lol The first one was the same as this topic, and the second one was that some videos were not playing on opera, like it was incompatible, but by putting that file into the opera folder, both problems were solved. Thank you so much.

            @molubabu said in Spotify not playing sound:

            @cubebox391 Hi I was able to fix this by extracting the libffmpeg.so file from https://github.com/iteufel/nwjs-ffmpeg-prebuilt/releases/download/0.60.0/0.60.0-linux-x64.zip onto the opera lib directory /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/opera/
            I kept a backup of the old libffmpeg.so file.
            Restarted opera and it worked like a charm.

            This solution from @molubabu works, just go to the github page and download the new releases of this file. https://github.com/nwjs-ffmpeg-prebuilt/nwjs-ffmpeg-prebuilt/releases

                        Hey! Sounds frustrating — especially since everything else is working fine. In Opera, this often happens because of a sound or site permission issue. Try clicking the lock icon next to the Spotify web address and make sure “Sound” is set to Allow. Also, check Opera’s site settings under Settings → Privacy and Security → Site Settings → Sound to confirm Spotify isn’t muted.

                        If that doesn’t help, clear cookies and cache for Spotify, then restart the browser. Sometimes hardware acceleration can also cause audio bugs — try turning it off under Settings → System. After that, reload Spotify and test again — it usually fixes the no-sound issue.

                        If none of these steps help, and since you mentioned the issue is still happening, you can check the discussion here for more details https://community.spotify.com/t5/Accounts/I-got-randomly-logged-out-of-my-spotify-premium-account-and-it-says-it/td-p/6399398
                        You could also try the Spotify desk top app, which usually handles playback more reliably than browsers.
