Today 1700 sitting UK time I had no sound incoming.
Others appeared to have.
Fully prepared for it to be my end but what would I need to change?
I joined via link off Treeleaf Now using 'join with video' there was no option to 'join with sound'.
Screen layout did not look exactly like a zoom screen with mute/unmute button.
Going to try again tomorrow 1700 pm but will bring my timer with me.

Hi Michael
Well, sitting quietly isn't a bad thing!
I get what you mean though, and maybe you could try joining via the Zoom app with the Zoom ID for the SSR: 483 483 1244

Hi, Michael. I saw your zoom was not connecting to sound, so, it’s probably a device related issue. Try entering the zoom preferences or settings and looking for the audio option. That will allow you to choose the microphone you use.Originally Posted by michaelw

Thanks Bion and Kokuu I will do some investigation on my tablet.
Laptop seems to work ok.
The problem is I cant test this without breaking into a session.
Is there a test card with tone for trying this out?

Usually, in zoom settings or preferences, in audio section you have a "test speakers" option.

Still no sound again yesterday but I have since discovered how to join via zoom using the codes.
We had a power cut about 10 mins in yesterday so that is why I disappeared.
Just for reference when joining Sew Along, Tea Room and Jukai using the posted links I get a zoom type screen with mute/unmute in bottom left corner.
Joining a scheduled sit I get a slightly different screen with a headphone icon with wifi over it in the bottom left corner.
I don't know if this is significant or if it my settings or supposed to be like that?

Hi, Michael. I was planning on reaching out again, to see what happened yesterday. Kaiku told me that eventually it appeared like your sound got connected! Was it so? Should I try to figure out what’s happening with your device or is it working now?

I don't know if the sound eventually came on because we lost all power so the wifi hub went down?
Perhaps I am set to headphones rather than speaker although other zoom windows work and show microphone.
I will use codes in future and try the free sitting room tomorrow 1700 pm GMT.

Are you using your phone to connect to zoom?

Apologies just caught up with your last question.
Yes we have a BB Hub that is dependant on power.
For other users that might have the same problem I will try and explain how the sound problem was fixed on my tablet.
On my laptop zoom has its own set up within zoom that gives access to sound.
On the tablet I had to set permission at the tablet level to allow apps ie zoom to access sound which then brings up the microphone icon on the zoom window.
