Question: There's a "leave meeting" button on the waiting room screen. We’re wondering if some of our registrants (over 75 years old) are clicking that when they aren’t admitted to the call from the waiting room when they think they should be admitted. Is there a way to remove that feature?

Hello,

About two weeks ago, participants in my zoom meetings began complaining that they could not hear.

This was strange because I could see the mic icon next to their names indicating that they were connected to audio.

My wife tried to join the meeting this morning using her Samsung A51 and she gave the same complaint.

After taking a look I noticed that when I joined the meeting and then joined audio, I could hear for a short while. Eventually, the sound would just disappear for no apparent reason.

What I observed was that the speaker icon in the top left also disappeared. I could hear nothing on the device but it was still indicating that I was connected to audio.

I could un-mute and speak and still be heard but I could hear absolutely nothing on her device.

I have already uninstalled and reinstalled zoom but it is the same issue.

I have tried using headphones but the problem is still there.

I work with a not for profit which hosts weekly meetings both in person and using Zoom.  Their default host device is an iPad.  The usual meeting room is large and I would like to use a Bluetooth conference-phone as the default mic for the room.  I would also like to continue using the speakers built-in to the wall-mounted display that shows the video.

Controls for audio do not seem to be as full-featured as they are for a Windows Zoom client.  Is there any way I might be able to do all or part of what I describe?

Thanks

Since a week we are noticing the following challenges

1. In a meeting there are 1 or 2 people of 10 present who will face challenge of no audio. Or they can hear the meeting going on for a minute or two and then after that it disappears. 

2. Last 3 meetings we had with over 30 people present we noticed this challenge with 7 to 8 people. 

have others faced this issue and what is the solution. 

I came out as trans more than two years ago, in the midst of the pandemic. I changed my zoom name to my new legal name. It was correct for years, but when I logged in on a new device, my laptop, I see that my zoom name has completely reverted. I used to have my new name and pronouns in my zoom name, and all of that was replaced.

I have had issues with other online sites and services sometimes showing my previous name. Gmail has been especially tricky, because sometimes it will show the recipient of my emails my deadname, but will show me my new name. This way, I don't even know that the other person can see my old name. This has been very frustrating.

I have never had this problem with zoom before, however. I wonder if the new implementation (new for me and my account, anyways, since I haven't used zoom in a while) of the separate first name/ last name/ pronouns sections of your name messed up what had been there. I don't understand how zoom still remembers what my original zoom name was, and I would really like to be able to go back and completely remove that name from any saved data. I wonder if my email has been the source of this problem, just like when I use gmail. If my email still has some lingering record of what my name used to be, then it might be sharing this with every service and site that I sign into using my email address. It's really important to me that I control who knows what about who I used to be. I really don't want to be greeted by my deadname, and sometimes it can put me in danger. When people learn my deadname, they learn about my gender history, and there are a lot of people out there who would be able to really hurt me. 

Has this happened to anyone else? Is there a way to prevent this from happening again? Perhaps I could erase the saved data that was collected from before I came out as trans so there was no way for my account to learn who I was. If any user or developer could please contribute to this discussion, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you,

SBC
