Video Completely Blurred When Using Blur Background

When I try to use video, if I don't use any background & effects, my video works fine.  If I choose to blur the background, my entire video is blurred, including my image/video feed.  If I choose a background, the video feed from my camera is not shown, only the background.  

 

I am using version 5.17.11 (31580).  I am using an Intel based Macbook Pro running Sonoma v14.4.1.

Same exact versions of app and OS, same result of background blur not detecting my face.

seeing the same issue on  Zoom 5.17.11 (31580) and MacOS Sonoma 14.4.1. The blur background and virtual background features are completely unusable now.

I downgraded to Zoom 5.7.1 and the problem went away, but not immediately, it took a few hours. So I'm not sure if the downgrade actually helped but I don't want to upgrade to the latest despite the repeated reminders until Zoom gets to the bottom of this issue.
