Got it working without any problems:

With this JS:

import Echo from "laravel-echo"

window.io = require('socket.io-client');

window.Echo = new Echo({
    broadcaster: 'socket.io',
    host: window.location.hostname + ':6001',
    withCredentials: true
});

For the server I cloned the laravel-echo-server repo, upgraded to the version 3.0.1 and just set this settings on the laravel-echo-server.json file:

"socketio": {
    "cors": {
        "origin": "http://localhost",
        "credentials": true
    }
}

All Worked well both public and private channel.

We’ve decided we won’t be investing time anymore into Socket.io since we don’t maintain the laravel-echo-server package. Instead we recommend to use something like https://github.com/beyondcode/laravel-websockets. Sorry for this and thank you for understanding.
