I found our code's internal model of ringing a little overgrown (it had superfluous states like 'unknown') and difficult to extend with metadata or callbacks relating to ring attempts. By modeling ringing instead as a stream of ring attempts, where each attempt has an intent, a recipient, and an eventual outcome (accept/decline/timeout), I find it more natural to work with.
This makes room for a future 'try again' callback to allow ringing someone again after a timeout, and also forced me to look for a simpler solution to the duplicate leave sound effects. I exposed the intent of the ringing attempt to the call UI so I can later use it in the header.
