Additional Office products blow up Lync

Hello Folks,

I am trying to deliver both MS Project 2013 Standard 32 bit and MS Visio 2013 Standard 32 bit to a Win7 64bit linked clone pool that already has Office 2013 32bit in the base image. Whenever I assign one or both of those AppStacks to a VM Lync has the following error -

"Lync is becoming Skype for Business. To run this app, you need to install the April 14,2015 update for Skype for business. See KB2889923 for details or contact your admin>"

I have tried packaging them from a machine that has and does not have Office installed already to no avail. Normally this is automatically getting rolled back down to Lync and there are no issues but whatever additional binaries the MS AppStacks are injecting are getting in the way.

Thoughts?

Josh

Answering my own question here - I did two things to make sure this didn't happen. The AppVol packaging VM did not have all of the same windows updates and I left Lync running during the capture process.
