Screen sharing with computer sound while connected to meeting audio via phone


This applies to users who join the meeting via both phone and computer to receive audio via the phone and video/screen sharing via computer and enter their Meeting ID and Participant ID to bind devices together. 

If this user checks Share Computer Sound on their computer, this will trigger the audio to channel through both their phone device as well their computer audio. 

To stop sending audio, simply click Stop Share at the top of your meeting screen or mute the speaker of your phone or the speaker of your PC or Mac.
