It is written in the packages notice that the sone does not work.

I am not sure why it got ported to FreeBSD but the sound is not working.

Nothing we can really do utile someone fixes it on the FreeBSD side.

update: when i login into zoom via firefox i can choose the right sound-device and i guess it would work. It is realy very interesting and a pure zoom-bug or whatever. Maybe it needs pulse-audio from Linux which it does not find in Ghostbsd. Any hot fix for that ?

That would be a question to ask the ports maintainer https://www.freshports.org/net-im/zoom/.
