Question - is this the native Apple Messages or a third party Messenger application ? If the latter of the two - suggest contacting the Developers of his Software for assistance and or an upgrade / update for Monterey Compatible version.

If the former of the two - restart in Safe Mode and then Test is the issue is presented.

Safe mode may help you resolve or isolate problems that you’re having with your Mac.

When you start up in safe mode, your Mac prevents some software, such as startup items, from loading, and it performs a check of your startup disk. Your Mac may take longer to start up because of the check.

I have the same problem. i use the Messenger everyday with my family. now i have to download google chrome just to have the Messenger video calls work. I thought it was just me because i cant see any review about it. I uninstalled the Messenger App then tried to install in again many times, unfortunately it doesn't work. i hope this gets fixed soon.
