Latest Dev Chromium build no longer compatible with Google Hangouts?
- Apr 26, 2019
The change was apparently at Google's end. If you alter the UA string to remove the Edg/ component, Google Meet works as before:

Here's how you can fix it, until MS support it officially.
1 - Install User Agent Switcher as an Edge Chromium extension from the Chrome Web Store https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/user-agent-switcher/clddifkhlkcojbojppdojfeeikdkgiae
2 - Edit the Google Chrome Windows user agent string to be:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/73.0.3683.86 Safari/537.36
3 - Set the option inside the User Agent Switcher extension to remember the selected user agent at start-up.
