Hmm actually Jitsi works for me too.

The one that doesn’t is a private video-conferencing thing at work (not
running Jitsi but very similar).  With the commit above, it says “Error
code: 4” (the GPU error was with an older commit).

The console shows:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
[16695:19:1104/110713.814684:ERROR:audio_rtp_receiver.cc(89)] AudioRtpReceiver::OnSetVolume: No audio channel exists.

It’s i915 and LIBVA_DRIVERS_PATH is unset.

OK.

Thanks,
