Research direction
The issue names the official Docker setup on Windows 10 with WSL2 and a custom domain, but no repository file or test. Start by checking the WebRTC media path and Docker/WSL2 UDP networking; done means microphone and webcam work externally while the rest of the deployment remains functional.

Description
I’m running BigBlueButton using the official docker setup on Windows 10 with WSL2 and a custom domain. The deployment itself is successful — all core services are up and the system is accessible externally.
However, I’m unable to get audio and webcam working properly. Everything except WebRTC media (microphone / camera) seems to function correctly.
I’m not yet sure whether this is related to WSL2 networking limitations, Docker port/UDP handling, or some configuration issue in BBB itself.
Has anyone successfully managed to run BigBlueButton in a Windows 10 + WSL2 environment with working audio and video?
If yes, could you share your setup or any specific networking / UDP configuration changes required?
