There are some scenarios where transparent listen only toggle RPCs are
directed to multiple different sessions in the SFU, which might cause a
hold-unhold loop because they're all anchored to the userId.
Append the callerNum to transparent listen only toggle RPCs so that they
are directed to the appropriate audio sessions in all cases.
* Send custom user data to akka apps

We still need to use a language pad such as 'en', but in the future we can better
separate these systems.

Every dial in user has its RegistedUser authToken set to an empty string,
Since authToken is the RegUser's HashMap indexing key, this causes a
bunch of inconsistencies; eg.: endpoint ejection will stop working if
more than one dial-in user joined a meeting concurrently because the
later dial-in devices overwrite the earlier ones in the RegUsers map.
The authToken is now mocked as the user's intId (which, for dial-in, is
the voice user ID) so that some sort of uniqueness is guaranteed within
the voice conf scope.
This is an initial, experimental implementation of the feature proposed in
https://github.com/bigbluebutton/bigbluebutton/issues/14021.
The intention is to phase out the explicit listen only mode with two
overarching goals:
- Reduce UX friction and increase familiarity: the existence of a separate
listen only mode is a source of confusion for the majority of users
Reduce average server-side CPU usage while also making it possible for
having full audio-only meetings.
The proof-of-concept works based on the assumption that a "many
concurrent active talkers" scenario is both rare and not useful. With
that in mind, this including two server-side triggers:
- On microphone inactivity (currently mute action that is sustained for
4 seconds, configurable): FreeSWITCH channels are held (which translates
to much lower CPU usage, virtually 0%). Receiving channels are switched,
server side, to a listening mode (SFU, mediasoup).
* This required an extension to mediasoup two allow re-assigning producers
to already established consumers. No re-negotiation is done.
- On microphone activity (currently unmute action, immediate):
FreeSWITCH channels are unheld, listening mode is deactivated and the
mute state is updated accordingly (in this order).
This is *off by default*. It needs to be enabled in two places:
- `/etc/bigbluebutton/bbb-webrtc-sfu/production.yml` ->
`transparentListenOnly: true`
- End users:
* Server wide: `/etc/bigbluebutton/bbb-html5.yml` ->
`public.media.transparentListenOnly: true`
* Per user: `userdata-bbb_transparent_listen_only=true`
