Description

Steps to reproduce
  1. Start a call from Talk Android
  2. Join a call from a browser as a guest
  3. Start the recording from Talk Android
Expected behaviour

When starting the recording from the Talk Android the list of participants is broken. In an audio call with two persons the initial of the guest already in the call is not shown anymore and another participant is added (I guess the virtual participant for the recording). If the recording starter leaves and reenters the call the layout is back as normal.

Research direction

Start with the Talk Android call flow and participant list handling at the recording-start entry point, using the reproduction steps and listed Android, Talk, signaling, and recording server versions. Confirm the layout fails when an Android participant starts recording with a browser guest, then verify that the guest initial remains visible and no duplicate recording participant appears.
