Is anyone else having problems with the X11 session freezing on latest Zoom (3.5.330166.1202-1)? I find after a few minutes on a video call, the entire X session including the mouse cursor stops responding. Parts of the display update once every 2-3 minutes, some parts never update. It never seems to recover. Haven't seen this in any other circumstances.
Have rolled back to 3.0.317369.1110-1 which is fine so far.
Haven't bothered reporting to Zoom yet as it might be some unique quirk of my X11/hardware/desktop setup, but thought I'd ask if anyone else was seeing it.

@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.
