Hello group,

We have a mixed environment with Microsoft Lync (with some enterprise voice 
functions turned on) & Cisco CIPC softphones.  We use Zeacom for our contact 
center platform.  We have a need for our contact center agents to use their 
hard-phone while in the office, but have the ability to WFH using CIPC.  We 
also need to record calls to either device via the BIB connection to our call 
recording server.  So we recently enabled device mobility for our contact 
center agents and this makes this possible.

On some peoples computers though we are finding that when they are running CIP 
and MS Lync at the same time, both Lync and CIPC are trying to answer and/or 
place calls at the same time (fighting for call control it seems).  Example, an 
agent will receive an incoming call to CICP, and Lync will try and intercept 
this call and pop to front to answer.  Other examples include; when an agent 
goes off hook and dials a call using CIPC, Lync also pops up and plays dial 
tone in their ear at the same time that CIPC places a call.  CIPC connects the 
call, but they continue to hear the dial-tone in their ear along with the call 
in progress.

This does not happen to all users, only a subset of them.  Our work-around is 
to have them close out of Lync when in WFH mode, but that isn't the best 
solution because they need the IM feature that Lync provides.

Has anyone in the group seen this before?  Anyone have any ideas on how to fix 
it so tht CIPC calls stay with CIPC, and Lync doesn't try fighting for these 
calls??

Thanks!!
