Zoom freezing plus Mouse freezing

I've got two issues with freezes under zoom. Both started happening after I added a webcam to my system. Before I'd join the meeting with my iPad (for the camera) and my desktop (for screen sharing). Now with the web cam:

 

1. Randomly, my wireless mouse stops working. I need to unplug and plug in the receiver to get the mouse working again.

 

2. If I try to screen share, the zoom app freezes up and I need to force quit and rejoin the meeting.

 

I'm running Zoom client Version: 5.9.3 (1911) under Linux/debian.

 

Any suggestions?

    Hi Carla,

     

    Yes, this issue stubbornly persists. It seems to be an issue with Logitech wireless devices. At some point during a zoom session, both the wireless keyboard and mouse stop working. I have to unplug and re-plug the USB receiver. I'm also using a Logitech camera. If you can help, I'd love to get this one solved!

     

    Thanks,

    Roberto

    If you re-read my previous comment, I am using the most current version of zoom for Linux. 5.13.7 (683)

    If you can direct me to a link to obtain an older version which worked for me, I can dispose of this newest buggy version. Thank you

    Hi @clyon , the most recent version of Zoom is Version 5.13.10 released on February 27, 2023. Please manually download the most recent version here: https://zoom.us/download.

    This should fix the issue. If it does not, please let me know. 

     

    Thank you!
