I can't get my Bluetooth speaker to work with Zoom or skype with my phone or Samsung Galaxy tablet. I understand it's an android issue. Anybody know anything about this?

how do you know it is an android issue? i have never had any issue with any bluetooth device on any of my samsung phones i have owned in the past. what speakers do you have? my jbl speakers works great and they are awesome in sound and quality. it even works great as a speaker phone!
 
My speakers work great too, for every application except video chat! Phone conversations, fine. YouTube videos, fine. But they do not work with Zoom, Skype, or Duo. I've seen a lot of posts online from other Android users with the same complaint. And oddly enough, they once did work with Skype. There is some talk about letter versions of Android being the problem.
 
FWIW I've used Skype with various BT speakers(Including W-King) and BT headphones(Including Bose QC35), on a few different phones like Oppo, Samsung and Huawei with various Android versions, and never had a problem. And have also used Zoom with Huawei Mate 10 running Android 10, and again no problems with BT headphones and BT speakers. Have also had video calls with WeChat as well, using BT devices, and again no problems. Duo I don't know, never used that.
