Research direction
Start by reproducing the Slack websocket failure with Proxyman 4.6.1, macOS Monterey 12.6, and a VPN enabled, following the listed VPN, Slack, and Android Emulator traffic-observation steps. Compare behavior with Proxyman off and verify that Slack remains connected while the proxy is enabled over the VPN.
