If your microphone changes every time you join your virtual office, the issue usually comes from the browser or the system automatically selecting another available audio device.
On Mac, this often happens when the iPhone is detected as an external microphone. Chrome may then treat it as the default device and use it instead of the Mac’s built in microphone.
To fix this, open Chrome and go to Settings, Privacy and security, Site settings, then Microphone. In this section, explicitly select your Mac’s internal microphone, such as Internal Microphone or MacBook Microphone.
It is also recommended to check the setting on the macOS side by going to System Settings, then Sound, then Input. The built in microphone should also be set as the main input source.
If the wrong microphone is still being used, completely quit Chrome, restart the browser, then reconnect to your virtual office. This often helps reset the audio device detection.
