Some questions...

1) I use Zoom on Linux, and usually there's no sound until I go to the Zoom sound settings, press the "test sound" button, and then Output sound gets enabled. I have to do it for every meeting. Have you tried that?

2) Are you using Pulseaudio?

With xubuntu 18.04 and 20.04 I’ve always had sound right away in zoom. So there’s definitely some way to avoid that bug on linux.
