Audio Issues (Others can't hear me)
If you do not hear audio in your recording, it is likely because your audio was not connected properly during the meeting. With a few steps you can make sure that you have your audio connected properly. After completing your echo test, we recommend doing the following.
After speaking, check that your name shows up on the top left corner of the screen each time that you speak. If your video is on, you will also have a blue outline each time you speak.
If your name doesn't show after speaking you may quickly switch between different microphones . Select the phone icon at the bottom of the screen and choose a different microphone until it works properly. .
