Didn't realize I was unmuted in a meeting

Hi, can people still hear you if you are unmuted but someone else is still talking? I didn't realize I was unmuted in a meeting I had with many people, until I checked the chat and saw the mic not crossed out. Does this mean people can still hear you? I think I was connected 'using the computer audio'

Hi @kimsta88 - Yes, if you are unmuted in a Zoom meeting and someone else is speaking, other participants in the meeting can hear any sound that your microphone picks up, including background noise or any sounds you make unintentionally

 

 


Hope this helps - Happy to help further !!

 


Thank you very much and have a fantastic day!
