@lovesegfault I've had this happen before office hours once (basically panic), it seems there's settings inside zoom to change it that work. The view Settings -> Audio
.
Oh, If I set it to System Default
then it seems to just obey PulseAudio!
Hmm, I see Same as system
(maybe that's different in another version).
I don't understand why that's not a default.
Yeah, definitely bizarre behavior to override system defaults wrt. audio outputs
I think this is basically "works as intended" since you can specify the input/output in the app and then it tries to keep it that way per it's code
Edit: Meaning the code does what it should do and it's out of scope for nixpkgs
The view Settings -> Audio .
The arrows next to the microphone/speaker in the meeting view should reveal the same settings
Alright, closing this issue since I was just me not knowing how to use computers. Thanks for the help everyone!
I still cannot change sinks in pulseaudio. Any idea why? I want to put a monitor on other device
I am also having this issue.
It seems to be application code releated AFAIK since it changes it back by itself... so "works as intended"?

I don't see it that way. The in-app settings should not be the only place where users can change the PA settings.
Also, if set to 'as system', this uses the system-default, which isn't necessarily the device you want for Zoom, and also that cannot be changed in pavucontrol, so at the moment, the only way to change the device is in Zoom itself, which is contrary to most other applications and limits the control people have over their system.
Wrt using a monitor (which Zoom doesn't allow by default), a workaround is creating a virtual source with module-remap-source
:
pactl load-module module-remap-source source_name=Remap-Source master=Virtual-Speaker.monitor

Any update on this issue?

Describe the bug When I am in a Zoom conference call I cannot, using
pavucontrol
orpacmd
change it's sink from my laptop's speakers to my headphones.To Reproduce
pavucontrol
Expected behavior I'd expect to be able to move Zoom across sinks, like I can any other application (Firefox, for example, works fine.)
