@edh - That's not the answer I was hoping for (I was really hoping we could get it to launch without xwayland), but at least I know I'm not missing something.

Some ~/.config/zoomus.conf updates:

  • SSO Login: I don't have qt5-webengine installed, and the ebeddedBrowserForSSOLogin line doesn't exist in my config zoomus.conf. SSO login works just fine (issues with Firefox containers aside).
  • Audio: I am using Pipewire via pipewire-pulse. system.audio.type defaulted to alsa for me (or I changed it without realizing it). I probably could have installed pipewire-alsa and fixed my issues, but I set system.autio.type=pulse (a lucky guess) and this worked. This should work for anyone using straight PulseAudio as well.

If anyone finds documentation on ~/.config/zoomus.conf, please let us know.

I contacted the zoom support on 13th July 2016 and tried to lure them into creating a proper PKGBUILD respectively adopting this one, considering they are providing a package over very none standard ways to the Arch Linux community (downloading via a *foreign* site) and not through the official repo or the AUR. However there was little to no progress so far.

I'm not sure if this is an upstream issue, but when using "Sign in with SSO", the prefix for the company domain entered is improperly formatted in the URL sent to your browser.

If you enter "company" in the prompt, the URL is https://company/ when it should be https://company.zoom.us.

This is despite .zoom.us being shown as the postfix in the prompt.

Workaround: enter company.zoom.us in the prompt that expects only company.

Anyone else get an issue starting a month or two ago where interpretation doesn't reduce or mute the original audio, even when the latter is explicitly enabled? This isn't a critical issue for me but it certainly is annoying. Am running x-server and pipewire-pulse.

Zoom keeps signing me out of my organization account when I close it. Every time I restart, it has forgotten all settings I changed previously and signed me out. Signing in again works fine. Has anybody else experienced this?

Does this have any particular issue with wayland? Can anyone clarify if there is something I need to be aware of if I am running on wayland.

@nicktee This kind of problem discussion is part of what this comment section is for :)

@jakommo - I still have this problem with the 5.13.4-1 package. I thought it was fixed a few times because I started zoom successfully but realised the problem only manifests when I start zoom and slack concurrently (both electron apps I think?)

Some things I know

  • the whole system freezes, I can't switch to another terminal and fix things
  • it occurs on Wayland and XOrg
  • it is resolved by starting with linux-lts (5.15.86-1) instead of linux (6.1.4.arch1-1)

This suggests to me it's a kernel bug, but I'm no guru. I will post to the arch forums and see if anyone knows anything else. Sorry (@edh for spamming your package)

Similar to nicktee, my machine would freeze instantaneously when opening zoom 5.13.3. They released 5.13.4 now and I manually updated the PKGBUILD and that version works again.

~~When I run 5.13.3-1 it freezes up my Gnome session. Can't find any indication of why in any logs I can find (~/.zoom/logs/* or journal).~~

Actually ignore this, it looks like an issue with electron, not zoom or this package specifically.

Is anyone else having trouble with scheduled meetings? I'm using KDE Wayland and Zoom silently crashes when I try to schedule a meeting or join a scheduled meeting. It's been like this for at least a few months

Personally, I rather expose myself to kernel-bugs than chrome-sandbox bugs (in a binary-only version of it as packaged by zoom!). If there is no consensus to the contrary, I would not set the SUID bit.
