Zoom version 6.5.9 on Mac is showing black rectangles when screen sharing

I have two Macs, (Mini M3 and Macbook Air M4), both running latest OS and latest Zoom Workplace versions. On both of them when I screen share, my viewers see only the black rectangle (which I also see in the little view window that appears near the controls).  I have similar hardware with the same OS but an older version of Zoom that works fine.  Of course, I suspect the new Zoom version.  We also have some cybersecurity software running on these machines so this is another suspect. 

 

Anyone else seeing this or have any suggestions?

Thanks,
Rob

As often the case, rebooting and letting a day pass seems to have solve the problem.  We can mark this one as solved and closed.
