If you want webrtc to disable the use of UDP P2P networking when you have a web proxy configured, you'll need to set the media.peerconnection.ice.proxy_only_if_behind_proxy pref to true. (You could also set the media.peerconnection.ice.proxy_only pref to true, but that will break webrtc when you do not have a proxy configured)

Does this get you the behavior you're looking for?
