My problem that I cannot find the answer to is while joining a Zoom meeting, my entire page is full of profiles, including myself. We start out everyone is muted, but as they call on us, we are to unmute ourselves and speak. Unfortunately, I cannot find how to UNMUTE MYSELF. The whole page is profiles. There are no controls anywhere.
