I didn't see the problem in kubuntu 23.04 either. Bit of experimentation last night and I see that the audio usually sorts itself out after you move to another workspace and then return to the one running zoom.

I have a Jabra Speak 510 running thorugh USB. When I first connect to a meeting, I hear nothing (but apparently my mic does work, so others can hear me). If I open audio settings, hit "Test" and then switch the profile from Analog Stereo Output + Mono Input to Digital Stereo Output + Mono Input (or vice versa, it's the action of changing the profile that seems important), then the sound works. At points during a zoom call (seems to be related to other windows/apps opening), the sound dies and I have to switch profile again. I never had this issue with kubuntu 22.04 LTS. I have not noticed similar problems applications which only output audio, eg vlc or clementine. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Join a zoom meeting OBSERVED RESULT No sound output until switching audio profile EXPECTED RESULT Sound should work without having to switch profile SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.8 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.110.0.0 Qt Version: 5.15.10 Kernel 6.5.0-14 Zoom 5.16.10 (668).
