GM Issues: When Only a Few Players Participate in a Social Encounter

On our social media accounts (we're @shadomain everywhere) we recently asked the following question:

TTRPG Game Scenario: The table is made up of strong role players, but sometimes a scene plays out with an extended conversation between 2 or 3 characters, with others not participating. If the others seem to be waiting for more action, would you break the convo? What other options are there?

We got great responses, here are just a few.
