Assuming you're utilizing Zoom on a Mac, this present time's the opportunity to ensure it's updated to version 5.9.3. Zoom has recognized a bug that seems to cause the receiver on Macs running macOS Monterey to remain on even subsequent to leaving a gathering, first revealed by The Register (by means of 9to5Mac).

Clients have been grumbling with regards to the issue since December, as archived in a post on Zoom's people group discussion. A few clients saw that the orange recording pointer light in the Control Center seems when Zoom isn't being utilized - the marker light is a protection include presented in Monterey that cautions you when an application is utilizing your mouthpiece. This clearly raised some protection concerns, given Zoom had a genuine security weakness on Macs previously. In 2020, the organization was blamed for deluding clients about offering start to finish encryption when it truly didn't at that point.

A Zoom agent later remarked on the post, expressing Zoom "encountered a bug connecting with the Zoom client for macOS, which could show the orange marker light keep on showing up in the wake of having left a gathering, call, or online course." The delegate likewise noticed that refreshing Zoom to version 5.9.3, which was delivered in late January, will fix the issue. Zoom originally endeavored to fix the bug in a December 5.9.1 update, as its delivery notes say Zoom "settled an issue in regards to the amplifier light marker being set off when not in a gathering on macOS Monterey," but rather it seems as though this arrangement didn't work for everybody.

"The Zoom client for macOS 5.9.3, delivered on January 25, 2022, fixed a bug including the inability to appropriately end the receiver use post-meeting," Zoom representative Matt Nagel said in a messaged proclamation to The Verge. "Zoom has established that this bug didn't bring about sound information being sent back to Zoom's foundation. As usual, we suggest clients ensure their Zoom client is updated to the most recent version."

One of my partners, Dan Seifert, can affirm that the 5.9.3 update truly fixes the bug - before the update, the orange pointer light showed up in the Control Center and menu bar when Zoom was open (however not being utilized for a video call), and the light vanished not long after introducing the update. You can update Zoom on a Mac by opening the Zoom work area client, clicking your profile picture in the upper right corner of the window, and choosing "Check for Updates." Zoom will naturally look for and introduce the most recent update.
