Issue with Zoom Webinar Recording and Interpreter Audio Mix

Hi Zoom Community,

I'm having an issue with Zoom's interpretation feature during my webinars, and I hope someone can help clarify what's happening.

 

In my setup, I'm the host, and I speak in Spanish. I've set up an interpreter to translate my speech into English, allowing attendees to choose between the original Spanish audio and the English translation. Everything seems to work fine during the live session, but I noticed an issue with the audio recording.

 

I record the webinar, including the interpreter's audio file. However, I found that when I switch my "Listen In" setting to English, my Spanish voice gets recorded in the interpreter’s audio channel. This is not what I intended, as I thought the interpreter's channel should only contain the translated English audio, not the original Spanish audio.

Has anyone experienced this before? Is this expected behavior, or is there a setting I may have missed that causes the original language audio (in this case, Spanish) to get mixed into the interpreter channel when the "Listen In" setting is switched?

 

I would appreciate any insights or advice on how to prevent this in the future!

Thanks!
