UPDATE:
I decided to chance it and rebooted last night back to 5.15.0-43, and
everything came up normally,including zoom.

Not sure why it wouldn't work originally, but all is now well again (whew!).

Yep, that's the one. I installed i ton my 20.04 laptop and it works
fine there, too.

Now I get to take the plunge and update the laptop since 22.04.1 is
now out (and running on my desktop).

Thanks all for your good words and support.
