ZOOM Shared music volume in background drops down when any of participants starts to speek.

Hello, everyone!  I’ve got GREAT REQUEST.

 

I take part in regular meetings in which I am the host. Before the meetings for half hour, I play background music: Share screen > Advanced > Computer sound only.

  

MY PROBLEM IS THAT EVERY TIME WHEN ANY OF PARTICIPANTS STARTS TO SPEEK MUSIC VOLUME IN BACKGROUND DROPS DOWN.     THIS IS EXTREMELY ANNOYING.

 

 

I spent hours solving this problem. Without success. I tried to solve this problem based on information from the forum (link below). I also compared the setting on my friend's computer, which doesn’t have such problems and uses a much older PC unit.

FIRST

I changed the settings: “Sound > Communications > When Windows detects communications activity – Do nothing

IT DIDN’T HELP

 

SECONDLY

I changed the settings: Audio Settings, option “Suppress background noise” and disable or put in low. if this is active, zoom considers music as background noise and suppress it lowering Volume.

IT ALSO DIDN’T HELP

 

I’M BEGGING YOU PLEASE TELL ME KNOWN WHAT ELSE I COULD DO.

THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR HELP

    Hello,
    My name is Brandon. Thanks for joining the Zoom Community! We are testing this now. I can work on this and assist you. The music and active speakers should be separate audio streams and should work independently.

    Hello, did you ever figure this out? I've spent multiple hours trying to resolve this issue. I keep thinking it's fixed, and then it stops again. Please tell me you have figured it out and you can help me? Thanks 🙂
