If SSO login is used (e.g. SAML) in a multi worker setup, it should be mentioned that currently all SAML logins must run on the same worker, see #7530 Also, if you are using different ports (for example 443 and 8448) in a reverse proxy for client and federation, the path `/_matrix/media` on the client and federation port must point to the listener of the `media_repository` worker, otherwise you'll get a 404 on the federation port for the path `/_matrix/media`, if a remote server is trying to get the media object on federation port, see #8695

Description
This is not a bug, but should be mentioned in docs/workers.md:
If homeserver A sends an image to homeserver B, homerserver B is asking for the image on the federation port 8448 to get the media on URL
/_matrix/media/. If (on homeserver A)worker_app: synapse.app.media_repositoryis enabled and client and federation are split to different vhosts (443 and 8448) the regex/_matrix/media/for the media worker must point to the internal media worker port in nginx vhost for federation port 8448 too. Otherwise homeserver B gets a 404 (not found) on the federation port 8448 of homeserver A. The mean thing is that on homeserver B, the user/client gets the message "Error decrypting image" and not something like "not found".So it might be a good idea to mention under "synapse.app.media_repository" in docs/workers.md that the regex location
/_matrix/media/for the media worker must be available on client and federation port.Version information
Version: synapse 1.22.0
