Research direction

Start at the screen-sharing button and trace how the local transport connection state reaches the UI; use the linked Figma design to confirm the disabled state and tooltip wording. Check the dependency issue #4091 if the implementation needs its changes, and verify that the button is disabled with the updated tooltip when disconnected.
