[BUG] Microphone is facing glitch #6
Description
🎯 Feature Description
A clear and concise description of the feature you'd like to see implemented — in this case, fixing the microphone glitch where it automatically switches on and off without user action.
💡 Problem Statement
The microphone intermittently toggles on and off during use. This disrupts conversations, causes missed audio, and frustrates users who have to repeatedly check their mic status.
🚀 Proposed Solution
Investigate and fix the root cause of the microphone auto-switching issue. Ensure the microphone stays in the state chosen by the user unless manually changed. Add stability checks or error handling to prevent sudden toggling.
🔄 Alternative Solutions
- Temporarily provide a manual “lock mic state” feature to prevent auto changes until the bug is fixed.
- Allow users to quickly re-enable mic without navigating multiple clicks.
📱 Use Cases
- User is in a meeting and the microphone switches off mid-sentence.
- User joins a session and the mic keeps turning on without permission.
- Live events where stable audio is critical.
🎨 Mockups/Designs
If applicable, add any mockups showing the proposed fix or mic state indicator improvements.

📋 Acceptance Criteria
- Microphone state remains as set by the user.
- No random toggling without user action.
- Works reliably across different browsers/devices.
🎯 Priority
- Low (nice to have)
- Medium (should implement)
- High (important)
- Critical (blocking)
💻 Technical Considerations
- Test across browsers, operating systems, and devices.
- Check for conflicts with OS-level microphone permissions or auto-mute features.
- Ensure no background process overrides the mic state.
📚 Additional Context
The microphone automatically switches on and off during sessions, creating a poor user experience. The issue seems intermittent, making it harder to reproduce but critical to address for smooth communication.
