no sound on discovery plus

Discovery plus has had no sound for a week now. I have X1 and all my other streaming apps through xfinity are fine. So are all my channels. I have done a system refresh, unplugged cable boxed, reset the SAP setting. It is the only channel that has no sound at all. Help!

@Anon1475464​ So is this a discovery plus issue or an xfinity issue? Either way if its happening to multiple people its not likely it has to with our cable boxes etc.

I came here with the same issue.  We can watch it on the Xbox, but the whole reason I got this new box so we could watch on the box.  It works fine on the web and through the app on the Xbox.  I'd say it's on Xfinity's end.

I agree that it is an Xfinity problem. I have had so many issues getting my streaming started and the billing straightened out since October (at least 6 phone calls) that I’m just afraid to call and have them mess things up when my account, at least the billing part, is finally correct.

@user_8ea65c​ I have xfinity, and I have the same exact issue! It's been going on for about 2 weeks now.. and I emailed discovery plus and they claim "they are working on it" but I also saw on someone's reddit post they have xfinity and theirs is not working either.... so I believe it's xfinity.

The audio stopped working on new episodes added to Discovery+ last week. I first noticed it when I tried to watch Kindred Spirits. I can watch the shows on my iPhone or iPad but not my tv which uses the Xfinity streaming box. It obviously is an Xfinity problem.

Did you talk to anyone at Xfinity? Are they aware this is a widespread problem? It took me almost four months to get my billing situation correct, I really am trying to hold off calling them because every time I do, they somehow manage to screw up my account. I was hoping someone would have called by now.

@SeansMom​ getting any response from xfinity is like squeezing water from a stone. After being on chat with them for an hour and a half I was finally granted the honor of making an appointment with a tech, although I dont suspect the problem is in my house. As we were making the appointment, the chat got disconnected on their end. I dont have another 1.5 hours to go through the whole process again right now. Will prob just cancel Discovery +.

happening to us too.  There is a reddit thread with 43 comments about the same thing and I doubt they are all in the same area.

I’m having the same issue. It works fine on my smart tv but not through the xfinity box. I also did a reboot. It works on older shows but not new episodes

Hi there. Thank you all for posting here regarding the Discovery+ app through the X1 boxes. While this is a 3rd party application, we will see what we can do to help get to the bottom of this. If everyone can confirm they've done a system refresh and a reboot on all boxes, and whether or not the issue still continues, that would be great. If it does, please post the models of equipment you have here in this thread.

Hi, I am having the same issue but only when I access through Xfinity. When I sign into the app off my tv alone then it works fine. I’ve tried everything as well. It seems pretty clear that it is an issue through Xfinity and not the app

I have had the same issue for at least 10 days now. No sound on Discovery +, through either Xfinity top box. When I switch to our Fire Stick it works great. I have tried all the usual fixes and nothing has worked. Thanks again, Xfinity.

Hello @user_056ffe, thank you for reaching out to us for help with Discovery+. We were aware of an audio issue where new episodes being aired on Discover + had no audio, but this should now be resolved. 

Please let us know if you are still having audio issues.

Same issue here.  Very frustrating considering how expensive Xfinity is and the service level is sub par.

I am having the same issue. Seems like all newer episodes have no sound and there are also some older episodes I have tried to watch that have no sound. When I access Discovery plus through my TV this happens. Xfinity please fix this problem cause it is not coming from Discovery plus.

@user_9c9223 Hello and thank you for reaching out on our Xfinity Community Forum, and oh no! I am so sorry to hear that you were also experiencing this same issue with no sound on the new episodes of shows available on Discovery+. I just wanted to confirm, are you also experiencing the same issue when you login to Discovery+ via other devices, as well as online via the Xfinity Stream App web portal and Xfinity Stream App?

I no longer work for Comcast.
