Last year Chromium landed a change requiring the speaker-selection policy in and we got numerous breakage reports immediately. I don't remember all the applications that were affected, but enterprise users who had systems that embedded VC functionality in iframes were affected and IIRC also Google Meet. See https://issues.chromium.org/issues/331226135.
You even asked about the issue in that bug, but I missed your message at that time because it was a couple of months after that bug was closed.
