Title says the bug. I’m using Firefox 78.2.0esr on a 2015 MacBook Pro OS X El Capitan 10.11.6.
Every 30 seconds or so, computer says “Game Started” for no reason. This happens while I’m playing games and while I’m not. If I’m doing analysis in a correspondence when the bug happens, it deletes whatever thread I’m working on.
I’ve also simply turned off the voice for “Game started”, which sometimes works in the short run, but is annoying if you have a challenge open while you’re looking at another site, for example, but the repetitive voice always comes back no matter what I set it to.
I have a similar problem. I also use Firefox. I think it is related to reestablishing a connection. That would explain the deletion of the thread as a wrong resolve for asyncronicity.
Accept my sympathies. My computer only shouts GAME STARTED 4-5 times a day, but it’s annoying as hell, I cannot even imagine it every 30secs.
New to the site, but having the same issue. “Game started” randomly spoken. I turned off the game started audio effect in settings, but it didn’t matter, still getting this annoying voice. I have to turn off my speakers completely to use the site… Using Chrome 89.0 on Ubuntu 20.
although not the exact same issue, whenever my computer is going “challenge received” the way i found to get rid of that is to reject current challenges from others. i wish i didn’t have to sometimes.
hope this bug gets fixed or you find a way around it.
