If you have one mic that works, but your entire soundboard mix get stopped by Zoom, THIS IS THE FIX. The new settings in Zoom are great to allow you to select "Original Sound for Musicians" and "Stereo Audio", but there is an issue that is still looks at the default setting of the "Optimized for Zoom Audio" settings as well.

Wow, thanks for this Dave. I've been scratching my head for a while with this, kept thinking it was my routing on the X32. Tried your fix and everything's working as it should ! Brilliant 😁👍

This video became recommended to me 10 months later. so the late post. Found a 2nd cause with Windows 11, not zoom. I use an audio interface to record and analyze electrical noise of electric motors using Audacity. The new computer exhibited the same issue. Speech recorded fine. a motor noise was muted between 1/4 second and 1/2 second as it was detected as noise. Yes it is noise. Found the issue in Windows 11 Sound Settings under audio enhancement. Uncheck it for being able to record the raw noise and measuring the amplitude and frequency spectrum. The setup was for screening small DC motors for failures and problems with performance. Yes the gain was properly staged and the hardware was working perfectly on the other computers, but not the new one.
I understand why Zoom has this feature. If you have 10 people watching the stream, and all are not muted, the combined pickup of computer fans, street noise, AC units, ceiling fans, etc combined will greatly raise the noise floor of he meeting. Auto muting any steady state noise will greatly improve the stream. The trick ts to tell the software the noise of a drum set is intentional, not a background noise.
