After updating (pacman -Syu and updating zoom), my webcam stopped working in zoom. The webcam works fine for other applications, zoom detects it (but then shows a black picture) and picks up the microphone of the webcam. It is a Logitech, Inc. HD Pro Webcam C920.
Last good version is 5.9.6-1, first bad 5.10.0-1.
UPDATE: Found that it works when I turn the background feature off.
BTW, does it still make sense to pin the two comments from 2020?

@Rhinoceros - I finally got screen sharing to work under KDE with Wayland. Looks like I'm using the same versions as you:
I followed the Screen share section on the Zoom wiki page:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Zoom_Meetings
The only thing I didn't need to do was set XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=gnome. I followed the other steps, and now I can choose my desktop/window to share. Prior to following the wiki I couldn't stop screen sharing without the hanging issue, which I was experiencing prior to 6.2.10.
