Using the latest version of the zoom ui toolkit for web, I have an issue where the users camera and microphone are held by the browser until a refresh is performed.

As far as I can tell, the proper steps to cleanup the toolkit are being taken (calling uitoolkit.closeSession(sessionContainer) in the session end listener).

Is this a known bug / are there any work arounds to release the devices without a refresh?

This issue is present on both chrome & safari. I have not tested any other browsers.
