Guest users whose DataChannel never establishes would have isAudioEnabled stay false even though audio tracks exist in the MediaStream. This caused guests to appear as 'connecting' with no audio on mobile while working on desktop.

  • handleStreamChange() now sets isAudioEnabled based on audio track presence
  • handleIceConnectionStateChange() preserves audio/video state during ICE CHECKING/NEW if tracks are still present in the peer connection
  • Add enhanced diagnostic logging for guest participant debugging
  • Add GuestAudioDetectionTest documenting the expected behavior

This PR resolves issue #6037 . The debugging and code was done with the help of OpenCode using GLM-5.1 and Qwen-3.6 Plus.
