Unable to transmit when connected to an _1_ position

[neilenns]

To reproduce:

1. Have someone already connected to a position, e.g. PDX_TWR, in CRC
2. Connect to the same position in CRC with a plan to relieve the other controller
3. Activate your session in CRC, you'll be connected as PDX_1_TWR
4. Connect in VectorAudio

Result: You'll connect, but your audio will never transmit out to pilots even though the TX indicator will light up
Expected result: Audio transmits fine

It appears to be specific to having _1_ in the callsign. If you wait to connect in CRC until after the other controller disconnects (so you connect as PDX_TWR) everything works fine

Thank you for the report, it’s not the only report i’ve had on something similar, I will look into it.

I've had success fixing this by Forcing a refresh of the audio station in VectorAudio.

How do you do that?

[DhruvK1985]

Click on the box with station name and select “Force refresh”

Click on the box with station name and select “Force refresh”

I had no idea that menu was there. Thanks!

The "Force refresh" method unfortunately doesn't work for me. To work around the issue I do this:

1. Connect as a _1 position
2. Wait for the other person to disconnect
3. Right click on the position in vector audio and delete it
4. Re-add the position

When this situation occurs, just manually add your station, for example PDX_TWR and use that to transmit, everything should work as intended. The only issue is that VectorAudio does not consider 1 to be a relief callsign, it only looks at double underscores.

This was fixed in TrackAudio, please head over to that repo for this
