Description

Steps to reproduce

Receive a talk call
Answer the call, voice only
You hear the other participant, but it does not hear you
Toggling microphone mute/unmute does not change the problem

Expected behaviour

Both sides should hear each other

Actual behaviour

I was hearing perfectly the other, he was not.

On my side, an android phone, on the other side a iphone.
Having a call with the same participant on his phone, using the web version of talk, it works perfectly.
So, problem is from the android phone.

Authorizations have been checked, use of microphone is OK.

No error message.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the voice-only call on the reported Huawei P20 running Android 28, with the custom signaling, TURN, and STUN servers configured. Trace the Android Talk audio-call path and compare it with a working web call; done means both participants can hear each other and microphone mute/unmute behaves correctly.
