It seems that the priority calculations down in nICEr are always computed as if the agent is the offerer. Something must not be plumbed right.
Ok, it looks like we have two problems. One is we're basing the priority calculation on whether we're the offerer or not, instead of whether we're controlling or not. This is something that can change with role conflict resolution. The second problem is that we are always telling nICEr it is the offerer. The end result is even when the role conflict is resolved, the priorities of the candidate pairs are never consistent between the two ends, which has a tendency to result in each side sending media over a different path. This could explain all kinds of things.

Might be worth adding a comment here that this does not affect the |trigger_check_queue| as that is a FIFO and not ordered by the priorities of the pairs.
