Thanks, yes, that is one of the ways I tried to join the zoom meeting on my Jessie system -- the client says it requires / works with Debian 8.0 (i.e., Jessie) but I might also try it on Buster.

I tried joining the meeting with both the Linux client and Firefox, both gave me video but neither gave me sound. At some point I'll try Chromium (I think zoom has a test meeting that I can join to try out) (/aside: long story slightly shortened> > It works on Buster, apart from needing to be told which audio > device to use every time it is run.
