  @aaronpk even better, automate that test and auto-mute until fixed.

  Indeed! I think its even a native browser feature these days (although Torsten is using the GTM App).

  What about wind cancellation for those that take their calls outside? Nothing like having your Zoom session dominated by someone's microphone blowing out constantly.

  In the case at hand, the echo cancellation is too slow, as the CPU is overloaded.
