As just one more data point, I use Guix as my work laptop and connect to
my video conferencing meetings through ungoogled-chromium. In my
experience, I can share my screen successfully in Jitsi and Zoom
meetings only. I can attend Google Meet meetings and see other people's
screens but cannot share my own. Microsoft Teams just crashes and burns
when I try to connect.

Fortunately (?) my company mostly uses Zoom for scheduled meetings, and
I can use Jitsi for my personal meetings, so this works out fine for me
at this time.

Best of luck,
  Gary
