Cause

This issue occurs because the aliases of these emoticons that are used in Skype for Business conflict with the aliases that are used in Lync 2010 or Lync 2013. Therefore, wrong emoticons are converted and displayed.

Resolution

To fix this issue, install the November 10, 2015 security update (KB3101496) for Lync 2013 (Skype for Business).

Note Lync 2013 was upgraded to Skype for Business in April 2015.
