fading audio only with Zoom (airpods connected via my Mac)

Hi all, 

In the past couple of weeks participants complained that my audio was fading in and out with Zoom. I bought new headphones, troubleshooted with Apple and have concluded the issue is exclusively with Zoom. In mentioning it to a client he and a colleague have also had this issue with Zoom in the past couple of weeks. My current workaround in dialing in for audio which has no issues. I'm working off a strong fiber wifi. 

 

Anyone else experiencing this or have tips on how to remediate? 

 

Thanks!

Can you replicate the issue when performing a microphone test (with the selected headphones set for both mic and speaker) in Settings->Audio?

 

If so, try adjusting the background noise suppression level (also in this sub-menu) and toggling 'Automatically adjust microphone volume' to see if software processing is the culprit, rather than your hardware's raw audio into zoom.

I can't find automatically adjust audtio.  I have followed all your instructions and it's just not there.  My audio fades in and out!  Frustrated!
