Description

To reproduce:

  • Alice is in call in room 1
  • Moderator reassign participants, keeping Alice in room 1
  • Alice gets page-not-found

When checking system messages, everyone got removed from BR, then only selected participants are added back.

Looks like $removals on API side are not filled correctly.

Research direction

Start in lib/Service/BreakoutRoomService.php at lines 224-241 and reproduce the breakout-room reassignment described in the issue. Inspect how removals are determined when Alice remains in room 1, then verify that participants who remain assigned are not removed and do not receive page-not-found.
