[sldev] VWR-10311 Enabling lip sync by default

[Ron Blechner]

Gordon: "try to use this as a backdoor way to get this implemented on
the main viewer"

As Moriz points out ... your statements presume that adding lipsync to
the main viewer is a bad thing, which is precisely one of the topics
of discussion. I provided my reasoning (increased immersion and being
able to see who's speaking more clearly) - but I haven't seen you
specifically state *why* you think lipsync is bad as default for
voice. I'd love to hear contrary reasons, so that we can all consider
the reasons and then work on ways to improve lipsync to offset / fix
those issues. Right?

Regards,

Ron
