@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.

After updating to 5.10.6, none of my system microphones produces an output. Using pulseaudio. Works properly when downgraded to 5.10.4.

After the most recent update, when connected to a meeting, as soon as I connect a bluetooth audio device, Zoom crashes. Have others been having a similar issue?

Similar, but a bit different. When I try to select my bluetooth headphones in my zoom speaker settings, it blares a loud static noise that doesn't end until I quit zoom or disconnect my headphones. I'm using pipewire.

Zoom crashes whenever I try to do a Share Screen. Just wondering if this is a bug worth reporting upstream or if this is a local problem.

Virtual backgrounds still not working for me. Every time I enable them my camera freezes and unfreezes if I disable them.

Adding 

[FEATURE]
SMARTVB=1

to ~/.config/zoom.conf.us did not fix the issue.

I would appreciate any suggestions.

Hey everyone. What do I actually need to include in the ~/.config/zoomus.conf file in order to get the settings to apply?

I've tried a few different ways but couldn't get it to work. I'm trying to disable login with google, facebook, sso and a few other settings. The configs for Windows are

nogoogle=1
nofacebook=1
nosso=1
login_domain=domain.com
FullScreenWhenJoin=1
DisableVirtualBkgnd=1
DisableVideoFilters=1

@fant0me Adding the section referenced in that support article to ~/.config/zoomus.conf worked for me!

Steps:

  1. Edit ~/.config/zoomus.conf using whatever text editor.
  2. Scroll to the bottom and add this section: 
[FEATURE]
SMARTVB=1

Restart zoom and viola! Backgrounds work flawlessly again. I tried this with blur, default backgrounds, and custom backgrounds. There are other issues with audio on the latest version so you might want to downgrade as well.
