Zoom for Linux uses ~/.config/zoomus.conf to set certain zoom properties, but I am looking to disable the "auto adjust mic volume" feature.

Is there documentation for all of the available zoomus.conf options that I can set?

This is the most complete listing that I've been able to assemble from about 570 installations across my employer's network:

I've never seen any documentation explaining valid values for most of these items, unfortunately, but have written known options in the brackets. There is no specific option for the auto volume feature to the best of my knowledge, but perhaps you can change system.audio.type from default to alsa and control it with the standard audio settings.

  • I've tried entering different variables from this list (like changing the sso domain) but didn't see any immediate effect. Is there a command I need to run after editing the config file? Do I need to reboot the machine? – Welz Mar 31 '22 at 01:14
  • You will need to restart Zoom itself, but not the entire computer. – matigo Mar 31 '22 at 01:32
  • I couldn't seem to get it working. Is there an example config file you can provide and which directory I need to place it into? – Welz May 17 '22 at 00:24

I figured it out, the mac settings are the same. These settings are indirectly documented here: https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/115001799006-Mass-deploying-preconfigured-settings-for-Mac. In some cases when the property starts with. "z", remove the "z"

the specific property that I was looking for is this one:

AudioAutoAdjust=false
