Summary:                    Agent shows "(In use)" and will not receive queue
calls while agent is logged in waiting for queue calls (1.4.22)
Description: 
I have a queue with approximately 50 total agents, about 20 of which will
be logged in at any given time.  Seemingly randomly (if there's a pattern,
I haven't discovered it), sometimes after an agent completes an inbound
call the agent status (as displayed in "show queue x") changes to "(In
use)" and the agent never again receives a call until that agent logs off
and logs back into the queue.  

This will happen about 15-20 times every day with seemingly random agents
at seemingly random times.  It happens when there's only one agent logged
in or when we have a full 20 logged in.  I can't identify a pattern that
would cause this problem.

This causes a huge problem, because we are missing calls and breaking our
SLA agreements with clients even though we have enough capacity and people
sitting waiting for calls.  As a workaround we are trying to get each agent
to log off the queue and log back on the queue after each call, but they
often forget.

Thanks for the feedback. I'll try to rework it and see if I can get it
right this time.
