After starting an unauthenticated chat, I would send the question, and he would never receive it.  Similarly, he would send a question and I wouldn't receive it.  We were able to send messages back and forth however.  After we authenticated via fingerprint validation, I tried it again with a different question.  He received the question, but it timed out after he responded.  What would cause this?
