This suggestion might need sighted assistance or someone to Tandem into your system. With the phones plugged in and Jaws running, have a look at all the Jaws entries in the Windows volume mixer. Make sure they're all turned up above fifty percent. Good luck SB

Re: Zoom and unable to close out
John Covici
What sound card is that? Is it the x-live card? I am not familiar
with it and it sounds like I might want to transition my screen reader to an external sound card, if it works and Windows does not stop using it randomly, which I have seen with some I have tried.

Zoom Issue
Justin Mcdevitt
Hello Group,
I’ve used Zoom more or less successfully over the past few weeks. However, some minutes ago, I plugged in my headphones for a zoom meeting and after hearing the pinging sound that the headphones were connected, I could not hear Jaws: that is, there was no audio. What can I do to correct this.
Best, Justin

Kevin, You need another sound card or a USB sound adapter that you
can plug in headphones to hear JAWS.
This will also keep JAWS out of your Zoom meeting audio.
Love in
Christ
Marty For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore, take up the full armor of God, so that you will be able to resist in the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm. Ephesians 6:12, 13
