Hey @mx_ryabov

Thanks for your feedback. Audio popup is to control microphone permission, so the speaker can still work.

Thanks

I checked this case in your demo app. After access blocking to microphone I doesn’t hear anyone.

Hey @mx_ryabov ,

Are you saying that the audio works at first, but after the user clicks “block” audio, then there is no more sound? Do you see any error messages in the browser console?

Thanks,
Tommy

Yes. Audio works at first (but not microphone), but if user clicks “block” audio (that is, blocks access to microphone), then there is no more sound.

Do you see any error messages in the browser console?

yes (screenshot from your react-demo)

Hey @mx_ryabov ,

We will work on fixing this bug.

In the meantime, the workaround is to enable the mic permissions, and go on mute. Then the user will still hear the audio.

Thanks,
Tommy

Hey @tommy, is there any time frame for this bug fix? It severely impacts our use case and were initially told it was supported as before we implemented Zoom’s Video SDK. Any updates are appreciated!

Hey @seth ,

This is on our roadmap to fix. You can stay updated here: https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/changelog
