When I load the page and hit the button to test mic (confirm allowing access) the sound line remains flat. If I tap on the screen near the microphone I can see some tiny movement in the line, but not much. Just for comparison I tested using the same site in Chrome and it's easily picking up and visualizing the audio it's receiving.

Once I installed it, I went to <a href="https://www.onlinemictest.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.onlinemictest.com/</a> and ran the test there. It's barely picking anything up, when I'm making noise the line doesn't move at all. If I tap on the laptop monitor just by the microphone, it will pick up a tiny amount of something, which is the same as Firefox (standard) has been doing for me. Just to compare, I loaded Chrome and went to the same page. When testing the microphone there, any noise is clearly visible on the line.

</p>True, it doesn't make sense for Firefox to have this issue, but we have to figure it out.
How about 2021-01-11T16:21:04-08:00jonzn4SUSEhttps://support.mozilla.org/mk/questions/1320864#answer-1383225<p>True, it doesn't make sense for Firefox to have this issue, but we have to figure it out.
How about trying a new version.

My levels here look fine as well. Microphone is at 86 and Microphone Boost is +12.0 dB. I haven't had another meeting since I verified these just a little bit ago, but not having changed anything I don't think this is the problem. It also doesn't make sense to me that it would just be Firefox that's having an issue with the microphone if the global microphone settings were the problem.
