Description
Steps to reproduce
- Install Talk app from the Play store
- Give all permissions to the App
- Disable battery optimization
- Talk can make calls but the microphone is turned off though it's turned on in the call and the permission is set.
Expected behaviour
Video and Voice Calls should work as expected with audio
Actual behaviour
• Microphone doesn't send any audio, though it's turned on.
• Camera is working fine.
• Not all calls "connect".
• Other clients (with newer Android version) can use talk just fine.
• Talk via FF on the same phone is working just fine as well.

Additional information
HPB, Stun, Turn is provided by the docker compose from:
https://github.com/nextcloud-snap/nextcloud-snap/wiki/How-to-configure-talk-HPB-with-Docker
And I know that the Android version is ancient. :) But it's my daughter's Spotify phone and I would love to use for Talk as well in my family.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the microphone failure on the Samsung Galaxy S7 running Android 8 with Talk v20.1.1, using the listed call and permission steps. Check the Android logs and the configured signaling, TURN, and STUN setup while comparing with the working Firefox client. Done means voice and video calls connect reliably and transmit microphone audio on this device.
