SVT's World Cup broadcast hit by audio problems

Swedish broadcaster SVT faced technical difficulties during its studio broadcast leading up to the World Cup match between Canada and Bosnia and Herzegovina. Viewers experienced audio problems in the pre-match program, prompting a message in the SVT Play chat: "We apologize that the sound is not working and we are working on a solution. Hang in there!"

The issue was resolved shortly before 8:30 PM, restoring sound to the broadcast. The article notes this as a brief interruption in coverage.
