**Description**  
Speaker A is talking all the time (no silence reported by zoom). At some point another user B coughs into microphone, and zoom SDK reports user B in list of active speakers and does not report user A (even though his speech is clearly heard through the cough).

Desired result: both user A and user B are reported in active speaker list (contributing audio sources)

**Which version?**  
v5.0.24433.0616

**Device (please complete the following information):**

- Device Spec: PC
- OS: Windows 10

Hi @bogdan.lytvynovskyi,

Thanks for the post and sorry for the late response. We have tested this feature with our demo app and when 2 people are speaking, we are able to receive the callback of the 2 people. Could you have a try with the latest version of SDK and see if this issue persists?

Thanks!

Hey Bogdan,  
I am a noob and I have been struggling to get Active speaker details via the WebSDK.  
Appreciate if you could share the steps to console.log getActiveSpeaker.

Specifically how and when do I call getCurrentUser ?  
I have deployed the Zoom Web SDK Angular Sample app
