Bogdan, I can't reproduce this easily.

Could you turn on logging for the standalone UI and get a grab of the logs when this happens?

To turn on logging:

1) Visit the link page
2) Open the Web Console (Tools -> Web Developer -> Web Console)
3) Enter the following:

localStorage.setItem("debug.dispatcher", true);

4) Reload the page and try to reproduce the issue.

Mark, I am reviewing this bug to see if this can be fixed in time for FF40 release. 

Tracked for 41 and 42.

Bogdan, I am setting the status for 41 and 42 as affected. Please let me know if that is incorrect. Thanks.

I can`t seem to reproduce this issue anymore using latest Nightly 42.0a1 or latest Aurora 41.0a2 (across platforms Windows, Ubuntu, Mac), so I think we can mark this as worksforme for now reopen it if this returns. Also I think we can drop tracking flags as well for now, just did that :)

I was able to reproduce this issue on Firefox 41 beta 9 under Windows 7 64-bit. Bogdan, would you be able to investigate further this bug?

I managed to reproduce as well, using latest Nightly and Firefox 41 beta 9 on Mac OS X 10.10.5 and Ubuntu 14.04 32-bit.

Ok, I can't reproduce this at all. Bogdan, can you try:

- Creating a room, reproducing just this, and let me have the room token.
- Getting the browser logs for the failure having enabled loop.debug.dispatcher and loop.debug.sdk prefs
- Getting the standalone logs for the failure having entered `localStorage.setItem("debug.dispatcher", true);` and `localStorage.setItem("debug.sdk", true);` in the web console.

Sorry, I missed this... Please needinfo me from the start so I can see it right away.

I tested using latest Nightly 45.0a1 with a call between Windows 7 64-bit and Windows 10 64-bit.

- Here is the room link:
https://loop-webapp-dev.stage.mozaws.net/gBznzpY4Y5Y#BdrNtPBuhmFQCTXI7MuDGQ

- Here is the browser console output
-- From the person who makes the call with those prefs enabled:
http://pastebin.com/cqgYA15L
I used this link room to generate the output: https://loop-webapp-dev.stage.mozaws.net/IwFYQzjODTg#sEzHZsFAcYt6FqC_G4mTHw
-- From the person that joins the call with those prefs enabled:
http://pastebin.com/qtB9KRLE
I used the same link from above.

- Having entered `localStorage.setItem("debug.dispatcher", true);` and `localStorage.setItem("debug.sdk", true);` in Web console I am prompted with a undefined reply from console (nothing appears in web console during the call). I opened a room and this is the browser console output:
-- From the person who makes the call: 
http://pastebin.com/qKTsMJ3d
I used link https://loop-webapp-dev.stage.mozaws.net/6A-t_ytLyjI#eqDjD8CVM5UpWMlYNlJprA
-- From the person that joins the call:
http://pastebin.com/K7xnZixt
I used the same link from above.

To make it clear, I was able to reproduce this with calls between Windows 7 machine and Windows 10 Dell Ultrabook.

Since we changed how tab sharing is setup, this is no longer applicable.
