Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'AudioContext' of undefined

I'm getting this issue when installing sdk from npm and using it with webpack and babel.
(webpack ^1.12.12 , babel: ^6.2.1)

Hi @danielhusar, this sounds like an error in your code related to how your using web audio not the soundcloud api. I have an example (here) using tone.js which may help you.

Can you share your code?

Unfortunately, I had the same error with the same versions of webpack and babel. It breaks immediately on import, but my app works totally fine with a manual HTML reference to Soundcloud's CDN.

I'm having this same problem too, it happens on the first method call:

I don't know why this wouldn't work but it doesn't.

sdk.js:23 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'AudioContext' of undefined

import SC from 'soundcloud';
import EVENTS from '../Events';

let track = `/tracks/${window.location.search.substr(1)}`;

const SOUNDCLOUD_STATES = {
  'playing': EVENTS.PLAYING,
  'paused': EVENTS.PAUSED,
  'loading': EVENTS.LOADING,
  'ended': EVENTS.COMPLETE,
  'error': EVENTS.ERROR
};

SC.stream(track).then(function(player){
  player.play();


  player.on('state-change', event => {
    window.postMessageNative(SOUNDCLOUD_STATES[event], '*');
  });


  document.addEventListener('message', window.listener = function(event) {
    let data = JSON.parse(event.data);
    switch (data.type) {
      case EVENTS.PLAY:
        player.play();
        break;
      case EVENTS.PAUSE:
        player.pause();
        break;
      case EVENTS.VOLUME:
        player.setVolume(.5);
        break;
    }
  });
});
