Screen share shared audio issue while using snaps

Experiencing an issue on Signal and Zoom snaps. Running Ubuntu Budgie 21.10.

During the screen share there is no sound from my shared desktop. I have tried signal .deb - no screen share sound, no mic input sound no sound from the other side.

On snap I only have screen share sound missing.

Started thining recently that maybe it is an pulseaudio issue.

Any ideas how to approach the issue and get it solved?

EDIT:

While playing around with pavucontrol found out that my mic input gets patched into internal mic device under recording and screenshare sound gets patched into my Bluetooth headphones mic channel.

How to get both inputs active in pulseaudio during the screen share?

Did you enabled such permissions for each snap?

I checked in gsettings. Everything, pertaining to the situation in both of apps, is enabled.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
