Why am I muted?

I'm muted upon entry for every single meeting BUT that setting is not enabled in any of my settings. I've checked settings for both my account and each meeting.

 

I want to NOT be muted upon entry.

Can anyone tell me how to fix this?

Welcome to the Zoom Community, @lyroberts.

 

The Host of the meeting you are attending controls whether or not participants are muted on entry. You don’t have control over this when entering meetings hosted by others.

I am the host. ?

That is already unchecked, as I mentioned in my post. Hence the mystery.

In your post you mention some settings, and don’t specifically say you’re Host vs Attendee. That’s all the help I’ve got.
