Description

**Describe the bug**

Whenever I try to join `#_slack_futureofcoding_general#matrix.org@matrix.org` with Gajim it does not join. Looking at XML console it sends the `` to join, and never receives any reply.

Join works fine from Dino, where I am almost always connected to the same room from the same account on a different device.

**To Reproduce**
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
1. Open Gajim
2. Open XML console
3. Click on Join Group Chat
4. Set server to `matrix.org` and room to `#_slack_futureofcoding_general#matrix.org`
5. Observe that the chatroom window opens but never gets any participant list or messages
6. Observe in XML console that the correct presence was sent but no reply was ever received

Research direction

Start by reproducing the join through Gajim with the XML console enabled, then compare the sent presence and missing reply with the working Dino connection. The issue is done when joining this room receives the participant list and messages instead of leaving the chatroom window empty.
