Calls fail when device changes orientation on Plus/Max phones

[fedorbass]

Steps to reproduce

1. Where are you starting? What can you see? During the call, video disabled, the call screen shows my and the opponent's avatar images with enabled mic icons.
2. What do you do? I turn the device from portrait mode to landscape mode
3. More steps…

Outcome

What did you expect?

Transition of the layout to the landscape mode with elements rotated and resized to populate the resized screen dimensions.

What happened instead?

• Blank screen with "loading..." text centered (landscape orientation).
• The call silently disappears for both participants
• Reverting device orientation back to landscape results in turning this blank screen to portrait mode. Call doesn't reestablish.
