Research direction

Start in app/livechat/server/lib/Helper.js at line 359 and inspect forwardRoomToDepartment, using the reported error and the OmniChannel Sessions setting as context. Reproduce the offline-agent timeout flow, then verify that an open visitor session is forwarded to the original queue or another agent without triggering the same-department error.
