Haven't been able to use zoom in over a week on the laptop, which is an Omen 15! It's making things rather difficult since I do a lot of online trainings which are all scheduled on zoom. Getting the 'Failed to Detect Speaker error'.

But there is no sound output to any device. The Zoom app does not produce any sound whether I select 'Same as System' or 'Speaker/HP (Realtek (R) Audio)' in Settings. Having the exact same problem, since the update.
