Mac M3 Pro - My Zoom background is unwanted permanently blurred

Hi, 
I have a brand new MacBook Pro with a M3 Pro processor, it's on the latest software versions for MacOS Sonoma as well for Zoom. 
With the switch to the new MacBook my Zoom background is suddenly permanently blurred and can't be changed. - no, and I'm not using the blurred filter. I don't want a blurred background.
The blurred background happens with either cameras - Facetime, Elegato and OBS. 
I have a super clear picture when not using Zoom like e.g. streaming with OBS or Restream. 
So, it's a Zoom only issue. 

Has anyone experienced a similar issue and found a solution?

I had the same issue, suddenly since beginning of the year 2024 and couldn't find setting to adjust.
i also had most recent Zoom Version, but decided to re-install the app.. et voilà, then it works again.

I have same issue.  
The image becomes blurry and you need to restart the machine to return to normal.
