Hi all, I just found out from my work colleagues that my Zoom audio has been behaving such that my audio always sounds very low to them when I first start speaking, then ramping up to a reasonable volume over a couple of seconds. Setting system.audio.type=alsa in ~/.config/zoomus.conf fixed this behaviour.
Edit: This "fix" didn't work. :( Any tips would be appreciated.
5.4.57450.1220-1 Missing audio disconnect option after audio connect. In windows version it is present in lower left corner.
Hm, Zoom is unusable for me. I join a meeting, it works fine for a few seconds, and then it crashes. Log says Something went wrong while running zoom,exit code is 139. I suspect it's a qt issue but I don't really know where else to ask help.
@caleb Yes, I am well aware of that. But considering that they advertise the version the same, I would consider the change an artifact of the publishing process and will silently change it when zoom 5.5 comes out eventually.
but the way they advertise their version has changed and thus pacman will think it is actually lower.
This is what the PKGBUILD epoch property is for.
Like a couple users below (@phillipchaffee), on v5.4.57450.1220-1: Zoom is usable. Audio is fine and does not stutter. However, periodically the video framerate will drop (around 1-2 fps), and the UI will stutter. E.g. if I move the mouse in the zoom window, the bottom bar (with share screen, etc.) will take 2-4 seconds to appear.
Zoom does not appear to use large amounts of CPU % or memory when this happens. Issue doesn't seem to affect windows or OSX users atm.
@vesath Tanks I forgot about that :D
@NGr Yes, the version number increased but the way they advertise their version has changed and thus pacman will think it is actually lower.
@vesath The version number has increased.
If you're taking the version number from 5.4.56259.1207 down to 5.4.7 you must add 'epoch=1' so that pacman will know this is actually an upgrade.
The latest version, 5.4.56259.1207, unfortunately still crashes on me if I open a link directly. The workaround that others mentioned about opening Zoom separately first and logging in appears to do the trick sometimes.

@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.
