Discord screen share no audio

tech support wanted

When I share my screen on Discord, people can't hear any audio from it. It used to work several months ago, back in early February, to be exact, that was the last time I really used it.

I'm using Endeavour OS with KDE Plasma 6.4, but I had the same issue when I was on 6.3

And here's the thing, IT SHOULD be working. Here is what the Discord relevant sources and inputs looks like under qpwgraph

So you can see Discord is making the right audio connections, yet there is no activity at all for discord_capture when I'm streaming, the activity for discord_capture stays empty, regardless of what's playing. In this case, I'm using Audacious with the Pulseaudio output as an example.
I remember when it was working, I used to have activity on that channel when I was streaming.

I'm at a complete lost. I really need this working. I also tried webcoord, my old backup, but that's broken too since electron 33.
