Cannot get discord bot to join voice channel. 4006 ERROR!

I haven't been able to resolve it myself for hours and I feel like it's not the code but possibly discord's end. I've been looking for support so I hope this is the right place.

Shard ID None WebSocket closed with 4006

Shard ID None WebSocket closed with 4006

Code:

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
from config import TOKEN 


VOICE_CHANNEL_ID = [a valid one]
AUDIO_FILE = "vineboom.mp3"

intents = discord.Intents.default()
intents.voice_states = True

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="`", intents=intents)

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print(f"Logged in as {bot.user}")
    channel = bot.get_channel(VOICE_CHANNEL_ID)
    if channel:
        vc = await channel.connect()
        vc.play(discord.FFmpegPCMAudio(AUDIO_FILE))

bot.run(TOKEN)

import discord
from discord.ext import commands
from config import TOKEN 


VOICE_CHANNEL_ID = [a valid one]
AUDIO_FILE = "vineboom.mp3"

intents = discord.Intents.default()
intents.voice_states = True

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="`", intents=intents)

@bot.event
async def on_ready():
    print(f"Logged in as {bot.user}")
    channel = bot.get_channel(VOICE_CHANNEL_ID)
    if channel:
        vc = await channel.connect()
        vc.play(discord.FFmpegPCMAudio(AUDIO_FILE))

bot.run(TOKEN)

Steps taken so far to resolve problem: Libraries updated: Discord_py-2.5.2 PyNaCl-1.5.0 aiohttp-3.12.13 Fresh install of python 3.13.5 Restarting code, restarting pc, restarting internet. Kicking and re inviting bot, changing bot token. Snippet of the log:
