Zoom will not launch properly from Slack.

I launch Zoom within Slack with   / zoom  and an invite appears. When I click on it at shows me a pop up window that says to wait until the host launches the meeting BUT I am the host. Very frustrating.  I've added the zoom and slack apps to each vendor's product both are using the same email. I can laugh the zoom app copy the invite and post it in Slack BUT CAN NOT launch my own meeting from Slack. 

Advise? Help?

Hey @sidewinder, if you go to https://zoom.us/meeting#/upcoming do you see the meeting you scheduled in Slack, and is it possible to end the meeting from there and try restarting the meeting?
