I reported this to Zoom as well.

PLease, in order to narrow the issue, can you confirm if you have the same Wayland issue with another full screen application in a zoom session, under same computer and session setup? Thanks

As a workaround, you may prefer to choose full screen sharing under Zoom, instead of choosing the Impress window.

It seems to be working now with a recent Zoom update but now Zoom records the Zoom task bar at the top of the screen whereas it didn't used to do this. Zoom tech support is useless for Linux.

I'm just going to stick with X11 since there aren't any issues.
