Receiving inconsistent presence status values in user presence status updated webhook events

Description
Receiving inconsistent presence_status values for user.presence_status_updated webhook events when hosting a meeting on mobile vs desktop.

Error
While a user is hosting a zoom meeting on an Android device and changes their zoom status via a Zoom Desktop client, logged in as the same user, the user.presence_status_updated webhook event will emit “Do_Not_Disturb” as the presence_status on every manual setting of Away/Available status via the Zoom Desktop client.

This is inconsistent with the presence_status status emitted while hosting a meeting on Desktop. On desktop if a user is hosting a meeting and manually changes their user status to Away/Available the emitted webhook event’spresence_status will be Away/Available.

Is this expected behavior?

Which App Type (OAuth / Chatbot / JWT / Webhook)?
