I've been running it this way since the support was added in Zoom
5.10. If you have enableWaylandShare=true in your zoom config, then it will
fail without the XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP lie saying your environment is
not compatible. Sometimes you may also need to force PipeWire as a
backend.

All of these are kindly documented by the Arch folks:

Please file a bug to ask for support in KWin:
