The Web UI sends
speakingandstoppedSpeakingmessages through thestatusandharkdata channels, but the messages are simply ignored when received in theharkdata channel. The Android and iOS apps do not even use theharkdata channel, neither for sending nor for listening, so it can be fully removed.Moreover, with latest Janus versions the peers receive all data channel messages in the
JanusDataChanneldata channel, no matter on which data channel they were originally sent. As thespeakingandstoppedSpeakingmessages are sent through thestatusdata channel sending them too through theharkdata channel caused the messages to be handled twice.
