This issue, affecting various Android brands, has been ongoing for years, as confirmed by reports from forums like OnePlus.

Currently, there is no permanent fix. Users are advised to stay within the app during calls to avoid disruptions. Reinstalling the app has not resolved the issue.

For now, users must work around the problem until an official update addresses it.

Key Points:

• The bug affects multiple Android devices, regardless of brand.
• It mutes the microphone when multitasking or when the screen dims.
• Staying in the app during calls is the best temporary solution.
