Navigating in Zoom while showing video in PowerPoint

You used to be able to navigate in Zoom (chat, set up breakout rooms, make someone a co-host, etc.) while sharing your screen with an embedded video were playing in PowerPoint. Now, when you click anything, the video stops playing. It's back to the way it was a couple of years ago, but then there was an update a while ago that enabled us to do stuff while the video was playing. Now you can't. What happened?
