Explanation

Endgame allchat voice session failed to terminate after returning to main menu.

Had a weird issue after one round where the endgame voice session to an opposing party from a previous round stayed active LONG after the match ended. Has only happened once in ~30hrs played but weird enough that I figured I'd report it anyway.

I was playing solo, no party, no external voice comms, no external streams, no audio sources bar Splitty. Got to endgame screen and heard comms from the opposing team. Went afk for a while, came back to find I was still hearing their comms despite having me having timed out to the main menu, and them being in another match. I queued up, and the comms channel closed at some point while loading in to the new match.

Unfortunately not heaps more info than that, however the opposing party seemed very active on comms for the bit that I heard at end of round before afking, so wondering if the voice backend may be preserving a channel that's active beyond match boundaries / across gamestate transitions? And/Or if there's state cleanup that happens loading into a new match which doesn't happen when timing out to main menu (and new match state cleanup doesn't clear prev-match voice sessions)?
