One issue I had with the likes of Elgato Camera Hub and Camera Graph when uninstalling them is that they leave extensions behind which they cannot remove unless you disable System Integrity Protection (SIP)
This would mean that in my case, these camera apps, left the device behind in apps like Teams, Photo booth, Zoom etc even though the software application itself was removed.
First check that the extensions is actually loaded and active
In my case it looked like this
Shut down you Mac
On Apple Silicon Power on and hold the power button until "Loading startup options" appears (or Intel, follow https://developer.apple.com/documentation/security/disabling_and_enabling_system_integrity_protection)
Press the Gear Icon labeled Options and continue
Sign in with your account
In the top bar, click Utilities and Terminal
csrutil disable
Y, enter
Reboot
Login as normal and open your terminal, run systemextensionsctl uninstall <teamId> <bundleId>
So in my case
Which both returned "Success"
Shutdown and enter
