Tested 6.2.0-1. Sharing works for me, but it still crashes after stopping. The workaround for me is still downgrading pipewire and libpipewire to 1.0.7 before meetings.

@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 have problems with annotating screen sharings of others for a few months now. Using LXQt from aur with KWin from aur. The whole second window with the screen share goes black, an overlay which only goes away if the second window disappears (e.g. switch to some room or closing/opening zoom).

I am switching to zoom-system-qt now, maybe this helps me for now.

@aragon123 That sounds really strange and is not the case for me.

I had a problem with Zoom crashing when the electron [1] package was missing, after installing this, Zoom does not crash anymore.

Like hv15 commented, I tried pipewire instead of alsa and now I can use my bluetooth earphones with mic

@dobedobedo, @angelsl As mentioned in a previous comment, ibus was added to the list of hard-dependencies by the folks at zoom.

Most Zoom functionality is good for me, but I have a persistent issue where participants cannot see annotations when I'm the one sharing.

  • I can annotate when others share.
  • I can annotate when using the whiteboard.
  • But Zoom isn't capturing the annotation overlay when I'm sharing.

Any ideas? Using i3wm here.

May I ask what does ibus do in this package? I remove it from PKGBUILD and it still works.

angelsl commented on 2021-04-28 07:50 (UTC)

Why is ibus added to the required dependencies?

edh commented on 2021-04-27 19:57 (UTC)

@ewtoombs According to zoom, pulseaudio-alsa is actually a hard dependency. To make it easier for users to circumvent using pulseaudio, I moved it to the list of optional dependencies.
