AH now I see. The microphone output IS SO QUIET I can barely hear it. Google Meet doesn't have this issue. Moreover, I was adding audio output capture and Desktop Audio mixer was hidden. So I adjusted output volume for 1 instance only and it was always so much louder (thinking mixer doesn't work), that I cannot hear mic. I figured the latter out that I don't have to add Audio Output Capture source explicitly and I can adjust that volume. But my mic output is unusable.
