Headphone Jack stopped working on Mac OS after Zoom update

My headphone jack on Macbook Air 15 (the latest) stopped working after Zoom software update on 8/17/2023 (I think).  I can use Airpods no problem but any headphone jack type headphone/mic stopped working.

 

It is not just for Zoom but the headphone jack stopped working for every other apps, like Chrome or Spotify.  I think it has something to do with stealth driver Zoom installed?

 

I tried all the troubleshooting:

- restarting computer (didn't work)

- force quitting coreaudiod (didn't work)

- creating another user account (didn't work)

 

I reinstalled Mac OS and it is now fixed, but I am scared to reinstall Zoom again.

 

Anybody experiencing the same issue?

Didn't face the same issue with Zoom, seems a bit weird. Reinstalling the Zoom should have fixed the issue, but why did you reinstall MacOS before trying it?

Thanks

 I have the exact same issue started after a zoom update earlier this week.

Reinstalling Zoom seems to have fixed the issue.
