Can't talk during screensharing

I have a Chromebook (so Chrome OS), and have noticed lately that whenever I share my screen, Zoom mutes me. I am only able to be heard again when I stop sharing. Wondering if this is a result of my Chrome OS, or if there's something I can do to rectify this. Thanks so much all!

    HI @MattAllen25, thank you for posting for the first time!

    Are you also sharing audio when sharing your screen or just your screen with no audio? Currently, there is a limitation with Chromebooks where you will be muted if you are sharing your computer audio. 

     

    Keep me updated!

    Thanks so much for your response Carla! I am not sharing audio, only my screen (article, email, etc. all without sound). Yet my friends/colleagues aren't able to hear me talk while explaining what I'm showing. Thanks again for your help!
