If your password is incorrect for a call, the call fails silently.

Open Half-Shot opened this issue 6 months ago • 0 comments

Steps to reproduce

  1. I opened Element Call in a browser, and clicked on a recent call.
  2. I joined the call, and could see myself in the call but no audio/video streams were present. Other users were present and able to "talk" (halo effect worked)
  3. The console was spewing thousands of errors about "InvalidKey: Decryption failed"

Outcome

What did you expect?

I'd expect a dialog, or other error presentation component telling me my password for the call was invalid and I am not able to join.

What happened instead?

I joined, but Element Call looked broken. Without looking at the console logs, I would assume the service was broken rather than my client.
