Hello, 

My in built microphone on my laptop works well with other  and is good on the voice recorder but I cannot take part in audio conversations on Teams because others in the conversation cannot hear me. I have tried settings on Teams and on my laptop control panel but haven't been able to fix the problem. Can anyone help?

Thank you in advance.

    I have a USB microsoft webcam with microphone plugged in and unfortunately have this problem too! So I don't think its just inbuilt microphones...

    Are you sure you are using the microphone built in the webcam and not the laptop built in microphone? Have you checked the audio settings of Teams or Skype app to see what microphone the app is using?

    The only workaround I can recommend you is to use a USB microphone, not the integrated one or one connected through the Jack port. I've tested this solution with a webcam and with Microsoft LifeChat LX-3000 headset (USB connected) and the microphone volume is normal.

    As the audio works well in every other app and plays music and I can hear perfectly well when it comes to Zoom calls etc  I assume that would mean, forgive me if I am wrong and not showing my ignorance, I repeat I assume that would mean that audio drivers are installed in my laptop!

    As they are and have been checked and updated and work very well as I say with every other way of hearing things through my laptop EXCEPT for MICROSOFT TEAMS!!!!

    It is not an installation of Audio drivers

    I have the same issue as Dufton.  Definitely a Teams issue.
