Hi everyone,
Mac person here transitioning to Zoom on my PC, so I apologize in advance if I sound like a luddite. Here's the problem:
1. I'm using my bluetooth headphones (trekz titaniums). They connect fine.
2. I was able to use them in the meeting at first, but I notice I have no volume control outside of the preferences/settings window in zoom.
3. I then notice that I can't hear anything from applications outside of zoom, either, SO...
4. I start changing the audio source in zoom, and now:
5. I now get no audio when I use 'same as system', nor when I choose the headphones as "headphones", BUT...
6. I do get audio when I select the headphones as a "headset", BUT, the audio quality when I do it this way is terrible and it's not sustainable.
7. I've tried quitting zoom, rebooting, and neither work. I'm reluctant to reset the headphones because I don't think that's the problem as I have two of them, and the problem persists with both.
Here's what I need and I don't know how to get back to it: to be able to use my headphones as 'headphones', not a headset, either directly or as 'same as system'. But now neither work.
Please help! Thank you!

Update--it randomly started working again today, but now I'm back at step 2 & 3: as soon as I start using Zoom, I can only control the volume to my headset through Zoom's settings, and there is no audio outside of Zoom (e.g. if I try to change the volume from the system, the slider moves, but I don't hear the usual chime, youtube doesn't work, etc...).
Anyone know what's going on??

just about the SAME issue here!!!
Have a conflict issue between microphone and speaker...
Heres a chart to describe the issues im havin...
sorry that its on the 'basic' side..
1st - im not sure about it showing 2 different types of 'speakers' for the same headset...
Have tried with several different headsets (and manufactures)
Ran thru everythin that can be done on my end...
(including Un/Reinstalled drivers), computer settings, ect
but have still issues.
.
Does ANYONE have an answer?
Or am i SOL?

No solution yet on my end.
Eventually the headphones started working again, but I cannot control the volume except through the Zoom settings (not the system volume controls, not even the physical volume controls on the headset!), and I don't get audio with any other application including the system until I quit Zoom. Once I quit zoom, the headphone work as intended again. ALSO: definitely don't have this problem on my Mac! It's really frustrating...
