Viber - Video Hardwere not found - Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS

I have installed Viber (Rakuten Viber) 7.0 on Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS on HP laptop 4PN36EA#BED. The audio is working perfectly, the video from the other side is working while on my side the camera is not recognized even more in settings for Video: "Hardware not found". Interesting is that if I start the Ubuntu application "Cheese" the camera is working without problems.



So: How to tell the Viber that there is a camera in this PC, that the drivers are installed and how could Viber use it?



Many thanks, cheers.
