Having previously worked fine suddenly no one can hear me in a zoom or messenger call. I've checked all the obvious settings and i wasn't muted. The mic is working in all other scenarios - recording videos, making a voice call via messenger - but not on either of the video calls.
Heads-up, it looks like there's an update out that solves this problem. Depending on your settings you may need to manually download/install it rather than wait for your tablet to pick it up automatically. (Settings>>Software Update>>Download and Install)
Do you recall if those two apps have updated recently? The settings could have been tweaked during an update. Ultimately if those are the only apps that the mics aren't working, they are the culprit.

We are using the apps but have also tried accessing via websites and yes we have reinstalled. Everything was working fine until we installed the samsung update a few days ago and now nothing.
The mic is fine when we send a voice message on messenger and fine when we film a video via the camera but as soon as we try a video call...silence.
Btw - All necessary permissions have of course been approved.
