--- Comment #2 from youenn fablet <youennf at gmail.com> ---
The video element is probably paused by the video call.
You can check this by looking at video.paused.

In appr.tc, the remote video is being autoplayed.
The phone call is suspending playing the remote video.
After the phone call, the video playing does not restart, probably as autoplay does not kick in anymore since there is no local capture.

A potential workaround is to call video.play() as part of a user gesture.
This will remove the autoplay restriction and make sure the video element will restart playing after the phone call.

We could try to improve our autoplay policy.
