Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in Nextcloud Talk 24.0.1 using the same email invite link in two private tabs, then trace the guest-link join flow and its interaction with the configured signaling server. Done means the second guest cannot join through the same link and Talk reports the correct participant count; add or update regression coverage where the join behavior is tested.
