Linux version 5.10.3 and 5.10.6: Virtual background and blur not working

The current Linux version of the zoom client breaks the virtual background function. The camera works fine, but switching to virtual background either freezes the image or just shows a black screen.

Has anybody observed the same behaviour?

Same here. Actually, I didn't realize it was related to the virtual background before seeing this post, I thought it was a camera issue...

The last version that works for blur and virtual background was 5.9.3 (1911).  I have now downgraded, but would rather like to use the newest version with all other patches. 

Seems to be fixed in 5.10.7

Thanks. Will give it a try
