@Rhinoceros - I finally got screen sharing to work under KDE with Wayland. Looks like I'm using the same versions as you:

  • Zoom 6.2.10
  • pipewire 1.2.6

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.

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.

Latest version of zoom makes awesome wm crash. I use arch + awesome wm + picom. It happens specially when I change it from floating to tiling or full screen and vice versa. With the appImage (same version) it doesn't happen. I can't replicate it, it happens randomly and I'm not 100% sure that zoom is the culprit. It could be some libraries.

@caduser2020 You're right! Thanks! I'll add it with the next release. Given that most users will have pulseaudio or gtk3 installed, they will not notice that this dependency is missing.

Missing libxtst as dependency. I don't know when it was added, but the package failed to run on a clean chroot.

With the update to 5.6.0, I am finally able to run zoom on Wayland without xwayland :)

@rogala you can downgrade by downloading the pacman package from zoom's website at https://zoom.us/support/download. The UI only supports downloading the latest version but you can get any version by grabbing a version number from https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/205759689-New-updates-for-Linux and formatting the URL like so:

https://zoom.us/client/x.y.zzzz.zzzz/zoom_x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

For the previous release that would be https://zoom.us/client/5.5.7938.0228/zoom_x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

From there you can install by doing # pacman -U zoom_x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

5.9.16-1-MANJARO, Zoom 5.5.4 (7938-0228).

Screen sharing after the latest Zoom update is majorly affected. The upload frame-rate is stuck precisely at 1 fps, and does not increase regardless of internet speed or screen resolution. I would appreciate any ideas that people might have how to solve it. Perhaps there's a way to downgrade Zoom?

@hv15 thanks for this. Here is hoping Zoom keeps maintaining the alsa backend.

On Manjaro Linux with KDE Plasma 5.20.5, when trying to login using gmail or trying to join meetings by link, it fails because it cannot find application handler for Zoom:

Could not find any application or handler for zoommtg://us02web.zoom.us/join? 
action=join&confno=REMOVED_BY_ME…REMOVED_BY_ME&browser=chrome&t=REMOVED_BY_ME

Edit: Fixed by replacing ~/.local/share/applications/Zoom.desktop with /usr/share/applications/Zoom.desktop

I had problems with microphone being jittery, to a degree that it was hardly usable. It might have been related to pipewire and/or pipewire-pulse with PulseEffects enabled. Bypassing PulseEffects didn't work, though.

What helped me was installing pipewire-alsa and setting system.audio.type=alsa in ~/.config/zoomus.conf, as hv15 suggested. Now the mic is usable again :)

Using "GNOME on Xorg" I suddenly found out that I can't share screen (neither full desktop nor specific window, in both cases only the wallpaper was seen zooming in and out or with glitching window top bar). Switching to "GNOME" (Wayland) solved this.
