speaker delay from other party to my headset

When on a conference call the other parties are able to hear me from the first word to the last, but once it shifts to them to talk, there is a significant delay before I can hear what they are saying... so much so that I have to ask them to repeat themselves, which if we are talking and they aren't quit for too long, we are fine.  But once I have talked for a bit, I hear a beep, then when I ask them to respond, it takes a bit of time for Zoom to recognize that they are speaking.  They get the green boarder and the mouth is moving, but the audio is delayed, and I pick them up halfway thru a sentence.  How do I fix? 

 

Also, when there have been three parties, the other two don't have the delay on their side, it's only on my side.

Reaching Front Desk Operator by Dialing "0" (2025 Solution)

Hello everyone,

I'm having trouble setting up my phone number in the Zoom Phone system. When someone calls the number, they hear the message: "Please press 0 to speak to the operator." However, when "0" is pressed, the caller hears: "There’s nobody at that extension."

I’ve tried configuring this in my Zoom account settings but haven’t been able to figure out where or how to fix this. I’m looking for help with the following:

  • How to correctly set up the "Press 0 for operator" functionality so it routes to the correct person or extension.
  • Where in the Zoom admin settings I can configure this behavior.
  • Any specific settings I need to review or adjust to make this work as intended.

I would appreciate detailed guidance or any steps I can follow to troubleshoot and resolve this issue.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Transferred calls, other side can't hear.

Have Zoom Phone for about 162 users.  Our users use a combination of Zoom app and Polycom VVX310 desk phones.  Most use both (have a desk phone and use the app when remote).

 

Our front desk uses a Polycom desk phone but mostly uses the Zoom app with the PowerPak add on.  

 

I am getting more and more reports of when a call is transferred one person cannot hear the other.  It can vary on if its one of my users who cannot hear, or the remote side, but once that party calls back, the second call - audio is fine.

 

This is happening on WARM transfers.

 

Microphone and audio settings are not in play here as its random and occurs with the app and desk phones both, but again completely random.

 

I am not sure even where to start with this troubleshooting.  Logs show everything is good.  

 

Call logs do not show any errors of course as the calls are completed

Automatic Recording of Phone Calls

When we transfer a call within the company, when it goes from an extension (eg. 101 to 102), the recording prompt is played again when the transfer has been completed. Is there a way to stop this prompted to only happen when the call starts and not w... Show more

When we transfer a call within the company, when it goes from an extension (eg. 101 to 102), the recording prompt is played again when the transfer has been completed. Is there a way to stop this prompted to only happen when the call starts and not when it is transferred? We have found that clients do not like this disrupting their conversations when they have been transferred, as they are already aware that the call is being recorded.

Resolved! Exclude certain call queues from directory?

In our system we've got a lot of overflow call queues setup, and they currently show up in the phone directory on the Zoom app and on desk phones. 

 

Is there a way to hide these from the directory so they don't show up when people are searching? Primarily it's needed for call queues but it would also be useful to be cable to exclude auto receptionists too. 

 

We use Yealink T44W desk phones if that is useful information for this. 

 

Thanks!

Default voicemail greeting for company-level holiday hours

In the company overview account settings, I am able to set the default voicemail greeting for most things, however it seems I can't do it for holiday hours. 

 

I've got standard holidays programmed in for the whole company which apply to all extensions. As far as I can tell it only lets me change the voicemail greeting per holiday, per auto receptionist/call queue/user, which is just way too much manual work for the number of destinations we have.  

 

Am I missing something, or is there truly no way to do this?

Auto record only external calls (never internal ones)

I've got automatic recording setup for my call queues and users. However, I need to make sure internal calls between employees aren't recorded. 

 

I know that enabling auto recording on the call queues will cover inbound calls, but I need to make sure outbound ones are auto recorded too. How can I enable this without it triggering for internal calls?

One way audio with Yealink IP Phones in BYOC

HiWe face a one-way audio issue with Yealink T-31P IP Phones and Ribbon SBC 1000. The same phone works perfectly with the Ribbon SBC Swe Edge. What I suspect is the Opus codec priority since there is no option of adding the OPUS code in SBC 1000 but ... Show more

Hi


We face a one-way audio issue with Yealink T-31P IP Phones and Ribbon SBC 1000. The same phone works perfectly with the Ribbon SBC Swe Edge. What I suspect is the Opus codec priority since there is no option of adding the OPUS code in SBC 1000 but is available in SBC SWE Edge.

 

The strange thing is that this issue is never seen in inbound calls from PSTN to Zoom, but it happens every time a Zoom user calls a PSTN number. We don't face any such issue when the Zoom app (Windows, Mobile) is used for inbound and outbound calls. 

We have tried to make changes to the provisioning template for IP phones, but it doesn't affect anything and nothing changes. 

Has anyone faced any such issue? I need help.
