Hmm, I tried it using their free website connection via Firefox. My 
headset worked fine with the browser and jitsi. I have PulseAudio set to 
use jack-sink, that's the only way I can get sound out of Firefox.

I haven't tried the app image - I've had no luck running application 
images on my system. I've installed their native Linux client but 
haven't tried it yet.
