Bug: Menu buttons broken again on Linux, Zoom version 6.4.13 (2309)

I had a workaround to double-tap (FINGER TAP, not a mouse click) the buttons, but 6.4.13 has broken even that.

Tapping a finger multiples of times will eventually actuate the buttons once.

While a finger-tap on the laptop's touchpad (which usually acts as a 'click') does NOT trigger the buttons, if I use my touchpad as a mouse (pressing in the lower-left touchpad corner), a double-click WILL actuate the buttons.

Issue was once before solved but 6.4 has broken it again ( https://community.zoom.com/t5/Zoom-Meetings/Menus-don-t-work-with-Linux-client/m-p/234001 )

From the discussion there, it seems somehow related to system locale setting, but this has yet to be confirmed

It seems two differerent issues - they may or may not be related - are mixed up in that thread you mentioned:

1. Issue with non responding mouseclicks to open menus (Suggested workaround: double-click, double-tap, configuration, etc.)

2. Opened dialog windows that are unreadable because they are squeezed and can't be resized. For example audio settings dialog (Suggested workaround: change LANG to us-EN.utf-8)
