MshHostUserInterface.cs: Race condition referencing and setting systemTranscript field. #5799
Description
Currently, the systemTranscript field is updated by StopAllTranscribing and GetSystemTranscriptOption; however, GetSystemTranscriptOption updates the field within a lock but returns the field value outside the lock. From the code, the implication is the value just set in the field should also be returned but a race can occur with StopAllTranscribing that can result in a null reference being returned.
Steps to reproduce
Code review
Expected behavior
Either a comment clarify the intent or function should return the updated field value.
Actual behavior
Not deterministic
