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.

@je-vv

Pulseaudio should definitely be considered the default. This is also the case for the original package and therefore clearly intended this way by the authors of the software. Hence, I think I will leave the dependency as is for now.

I would suggest that you create a mock package for pulseaudio-also on you system which fulfills the dependency without introducing pulseaudio to you installation.

@edh, it is working fine with plane ALSA, so no need to install pulseaudio at all. I had a problem with multi devices. With just the internal audio and not external USB devices it works just fine, both, though the app test, and through a real conversation.

It means with pulseaudio one might require the pulseaudio-alsa plugin, but only if using pulseaudio. So I would leave as optional if using pulseaudio, given not everyone enables it (like me), but state that the optional dependency is for enabling audio with pulse. I'd really appreciate if you do that, so I don't forget to edit the PKGBUILD on any upgrade. For the testing I manually removed the dependency, so I could avoid having pulseaudio installed and therefore enabled.

Thanks a lot !

@je-vv Is there any other way to get sound without this dependency?

je-vv commented on 2019-05-27 01:10 (UTC)

pulseaudio-alsa should be just an optional dependency, since it's required only when pulse is present, and how it's now, pulse audio is forced to get zoom installed.

The issue was with latest mesa https://www.mesa3d.org/relnotes/19.0.2.html

Needed to do some magic to get the version updated because I had some patch version [19.0.1+really+18.3.5-1] which pamac didn't understand anymore. The whole story here: https://forum.manjaro.org/t/something-with-gpu-broke-in-deepin/83004/17

The Flatpack version worked but it the video was a bit lagging so switching back to native. At least there's an alternative if something happens.

Works with Flatpack. Tx!

Since Zoom is distributed as binary with given dependencies, any change in Archlinux can render Zoom nonfuncional. Hence I would recommend using the Flatpack version which ships the libraries Zoom is depending on: https://flathub.org/apps/details/us.zoom.Zoom
