== Setting active attribute to false triggers BYE? ==
We are currently seeing a BYE being sent as a result of setting the `active` attribute to `false`. This doesn't seem right - my understanding is that a BYE is to be sent only when an SSRC is removed, such as for [RTCRtpTransceiver.stop()](https://w3c.github.io/webrtc-pc/#rtcrtptransceiver-interface).  Setting the active attribute to false doesn't cause the SSRC to removed, so it shouldn't result in sending a BYE.  However, it could cause the inactivated SSRC to timeout on the receiver (https://w3c.github.io/webrtc-pc/#mediastreamtrack) . From RFC 3550 Section 6.3.5:

   Any member on the sender list who has not sent an RTP packet
   since time tc - 2T (within the last two RTCP report intervals) is
   removed from the sender list, and senders is updated.
