This is a known problem with the audio-encoding equipment, which has
issues being powered on for too long.  Power-cycling the equipment fixes
the problem on a temporary basis, however this does disconnect the audio
streams.

The encoder machine itself also needed to be power-cycled this afternoon
during the IPv6 and Database sessions due to related issues, which
disconnected all of the streams.

Further investigation into these will happen outside the Meeting hours.
