Describe the bug

The captions are being captured and transmitted to all, even though the microphone is muted

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Enable captions on your server: yq w -i /etc/bigbluebutton/bbb-html5.yml public.app.audioCaptions.enabled true;
  2. Create a meeting;
  3. Enter with 2 users (In the demo case, moderators);
  4. For both click the enter audio button and choose a language;
  5. With one of them, enter with microphone on, and the other one enter with listen only;
  6. Speak something to make sure captions are working;
  7. Mute the mic user and continue speaking;
  8. See error...

Expected behavior
Whenever the user mute themselves, the caption should stop being transmitted immediately!

Actual behavior
Even though I mute myself, captions keep on going.

Screenshots

captions_error.mp4

BBB version:
$ sudo bbb-conf --check | grep BigBlueButton
BigBlueButton Server 3.0.0-alpha.6 (827)

It doesn't seem to be happening in 2.7

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • OS: Linux 22.04
  • Browser Chrome, Firefox (Others might also be affected)

EDIT:

It seems that the very same thing happens with listen only mode choosing a language others can see. So, if I enter with listen only and choose English, for instance, and start to speak English, everyone else with captions enabled for this language will see the captions of what you are saying
