Zoom paused sharing the screen (saying loading or pause) when changing to the slideshow mode

Hi, 

 

May I check if there's any solution?

Using Mac.

Sharing a google slide.

Things work until I click the slideshow mode.

The shared screen went black (saying loading on the audience side, and saying pause on my side).

 

Any suggestion is appreciated. Thank you.

This was happening to me (Mac/Google Slides/Safari) but I stumbled upon a solution. When you share your screen, choose to share your desktop. Once you do that, then you can run the slideshow and it works fine. The screen sharing only seems to pause when you select to share your browser window first. So, choose to share your desktop and you should be all set!
