Bot doesn't leave voice channel after calling CloseAsync() and Dispose()

[LonelyWarriorxdd]

Description

After I finish music playback, I attempt to disconnect the bot from the voice channel using the following code:

await voiceClient.CloseAsync();
voiceClient.Dispose();

However, the bot does not leave the voice channel as expected.

Is this a bug or am i missing something?

The voice client connection isn't equivalent to the voice state. To make the bot not to display as if it was connected to the voice channel, you should call GatewayClient.UpdateVoiceStateAsync and specify a null channel ID in the VoiceStateProperties.

Thanks! All good now

I will leave this issue open to make sure the guides will include this in the future.

I feel like CloseAsync could automatically call GatewayClient.UpdateVoiceStateAsync and specify a null channel ID in the VoiceStateProperties since it is async and the fact that the type already has a gateway client instance attached to it no?

Not really, VoiceClient is independent of GatewayClient. It is possible to use VoiceClient on a completely separate instance that doesn't have any Gateway API connection.
