How to stop sharing computer audio? Button's gone

In a previous version, when you were sharing computer audio only, the "stop sharing" red button was still available on the floating toolbar. Now, when sharing audio, there is no toolbar and the only way I have found to stop sharing my audio is by having to share something else, which is a very clunky and unprofessional workaround. Am I missing something?

@SatineFor me, a new button shows up in the top bar when I'm sharing audio only, called "My computer sound" with options to "Select Sharing Sound Mode" & "Stop Share", or X which seems to also stop the share.

I noticed the same thing. There's a new tab in the main window that just said 'sharing computer audio' or something like that, and when I clicked to close the tab, the sharing stopped.

 

I did not see a 'stop share' button anywhere. Really irritating to remove such a basic UI option.

I've got nothing like that. Is this an admin config or a feature not on Mac OS?

On the Zoom Workplace tabs for the meeting (not the floating toolbar, the actual meeting), when you are sharing a screen, click on My Screen. You will see your shared screen where the camera feeds of participants used to be. Click on the three dots on the tab itself (they're to the right of My Screen) and then click Share Computer Sound. You can then click Off as an option instead of Mono or Stereo.
