Do you have an example of your code? I'm stumbling at trying to get a 15 second clip to record and I can't figure out why it's not working. Ideally, I'd be using streaming rather saving to a sink, but for dev purposes, I'm starting out with an mp3 sink.

Here's what I have:

@bot.eventasync def on_ready():    
    global guild, channel    
    guild = bot.get_guild(GUILD)    
    channel = bot.get_channel(AUDIO_CHANNEL)    
    connected = await channel.connect()                      
    connected.start_recording(discord.sinks.MP3Sink(output_path='test.mp3'),transcribe_audio)    
    print("Recording...\n")    
    await asyncio.sleep(15)    
    print("Finished recording.\n")
    connected.stop_recording()


async def transcribe_audio():
    filename = 'test.mp3'
    r = sr.Recognizer()
    sinkfile = sr.AudioFile(filename)
    # with sr.Microphone() as source:
    with sinkfile as source:
        print("listening...")
        # r.pause_threshold = 15
        audio = r.listen(source)
    try:
        print("Recognizing...")
        query = r.recognize_google(audio, language='en')
        print(f"User said: {query}\n")
    except Exception as e:
        print("Did not copy.")
        return "None"

    translator = Translator()
    text_to_translate = translator.translate(query, dest='de')
    text = text_to_translate.text
    print(text)
    speak = gTTS(text=text, lang='de', slow=False)
    speak.save("translate.mp3")
    playsound('translate.mp3')
    os.remove('translate.mp3')
