I normally join my Zoom meetings from a MacBook Pro. Sometimes I use my Airpods as the speaker and microphone. Sometimes I use the built in speakers and microphone on the MacBook itself. My MacBook is connected to a docking station which does not have speakers or a microphone. After a Zoom call where I was using my Airpods, if I have disconnected my Airpods from my MacBook, Zoom defaults to my docking station for the speakers and microphone. Since it doesn't have either the results are: I cannot hear anyone on the call, and they cannot hear me. The work around is to change the audio settings back to my built-in speakers and microphone.
I'm wondering if I can either configure Zoom to always use my built-in speakers and microphone by default? If not is there a way I can configure it to never use my docking station speakers and mic? I don't see anything like that in the settings but thought I would ask.
