Description Madara Freimane 2022-10-11 07:55:35 PDT 
Summary:
Incoming and outgoing audio disappears for WebRTC call if the User goes to another app, plays a video and navigates back to browser


Tested devices and browsers:
Bug is reproducible on:
- iPhone 14 (16.02, build: 20A380) with Safari

Use case:
Preconditions:

Steps:
1. User goes to YouTube and plays video OR goes to another app, for example, Facebook and plays a video

Hi!

Using the same use case, behaviour is different with last available iOS 16.2 Beta 3 version, now incoming and outgoing audio recovers, but only outgoing video does not recover when User navigates back to WebRTC call, for example, from Youtube app.

Because of that I changed title of the ticket and added a new sysdiagnostics file:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/16kOqvB50kEqwYaClnXCIfsKDIofuqrW9/view?usp=share_link

Same use case:
Preconditions:
Users are in active WebRTC video call

Steps:
1. User goes to YouTube and plays video OR goes to another app, for example, Facebook and plays a video
2. User navigates back to WebRTC call (opens Safari)
=> Outgoing video does not recover for WebRTC call if the User goes to another app, plays a video and navigates back to browser. Camera is turned OFF and other User still can see frozen video/black video.
