Hey @rick7,

Are you serving the site over `https` and allowing the browser to access your mic?

Thanks,  
Tommy

@tommy I am experiencing almost the same issues as the original poster. I have only tried it with ‘meetings’.

The site is served over https. After clicking “Join Audio by Computer” and allowing microphone in the browser permissions dialog, I see the same error message “Unable to use computer audio”.

However I am able to hear others and others can hear me as well. “Join Audio by Computer” button is still visible and clicking “Join Audio by Computer” goes through the same process and leads to the error dialog, but audio continues to work correctly.

**Version**  
1.7.9 (downgraded from 1.7.10 because of other problems with audio)

Hey @hub-eng,

It looks like you are embedding the Web SDK into an iFrame. If so, please try adding any [attributes](https://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_iframe_sandbox.asp) to the iFrame element like `sandbox="allow-scripts"`.

Thanks,  
Tommy

Thanks @tommy , I tried that but doesn’t have any effect. I still see the same issue. Here is a screenshot

I also tried loading the iframe url in a new tab, and still see the same “Unable to use computer audio” dialog.

Hey @hub-eng,

Strange, can you check to see if there are any errors in the browser console?

Thanks,  
Tommy
