TeamSpeak 6 Beta Screen Share Stuck on Connecting
Environment
- OS: Nobara (Fedora 43), kernel 6.18.9
- Display: Wayland
- GPU: NVIDIA
- TS version: 6.0.0-beta3.4
- Installs tested: flatpak AND native tar.gz at /opt/teamspeak6/
Problem
Screen share hangs at "connecting" indefinitely. Voice calls work fine (use TS proprietary protocol). Screen share uses WebRTC which silently fails.
Root Cause
chrome_debug.log shows: vaInitialize failed: unknown libva error
VA-API is broken on NVIDIA (expects NVDEC, not VA-API). WebRTC's hardware acceleration path fails silently — the remote peer sends SDP offers and ICE candidates but the local client never generates an answer.
Key Finding
- Tested both flatpak and native installs — same behavior confirms it is NOT a flatpak sandbox issue
- This is a known TS6 beta bug per community forums
Suggested Fix (NOT yet verified)
Disable hardware acceleration in Settings > Appearance, then restart TeamSpeak.
Debugging Dead Ends
- Added flatpak overrides (portal talk permission, NetworkManager system bus) — harmless but not the root cause
- Flatpak sandbox was NOT the issue
