Element Call is now consumed as our self-built fork
(@lotusguild/element-call-embedded); wire up its previously-dormant
capabilities and document the fork as live.
Soundboard (P5-15): a call-bar button plays user-uploaded audio clips into the
call as a real published track (io.lotus.inject_audio) plus local playback.
Clips are uploadable like emoji/sticker packs, stored in io.lotus.soundboard
account data (synced across devices). Gated by a Settings toggle + volume.
Quality controls (P5-31): per-user mic/screenshare bitrate + screenshare
framerate (Settings -> Calls), applied via io.lotus.set_quality clamped to any
room cap. Room admins set caps and hard call-permissions (allow_screenshare /
allow_camera) in Room Settings -> Voice; the call bar hides blocked buttons.
- New: CallSoundboard, useSoundboard, soundboardClips; RoomQuality,
useCallQuality, callQuality (+ unit tests).
- Optimistic-write RoomQuality admin UI (no stale-state clobber).
- Docs: mark EC fork live across README/FEATURES/TODO/BUGS/TESTING; add D2
manual-test steps.
Numeric quality caps are client-cooperative; screenshare/camera permissions are
hard-enforced server-side (see LotusGuild/matrix voice-limit-guard).

P5-10 Voice Channel User Limit:
- New StateEvent.LotusVoiceLimit (io.lotus.voice_limit) with { max_users }
- RoomVoiceLimit admin control in Room Settings > General > Voice
(power-level gated via permissions.stateEvent)
- CallPrescreen reads the limit reactively and disables Join with a
'Channel Full (N/N)' message at capacity; existing members can rejoin
P5-16 Custom Join/Leave Sound Effects:
- useCallJoinLeaveSounds hook wired into CallUtils; detects participant
join/leave via MatrixRTCSession membership changes (sender|deviceId),
filters out self, only fires while joined
- Sounds synthesized in-browser with Web Audio (callSounds.ts) - no
assets bundled; styles Off/Chime/Soft/Retro
- 'Join & Leave Sounds' selector in Settings > Calls (previews on change)
