I am assuming you're making a voice call, if that is the case, this is a duplicate of element-hq/element-android#3734. Element Android doesn't support receiving nor sending multiple streams, so this isn't possible.

Apps like discord and telegram do support this, to my knowledge

Yes, I am aware, I am by no means saying this is technically impossible. But for Android to be able to do this they need to support matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals#3077 which they don't yet and therefore the linked issue exists
