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 also faced the same issue on my Dell Latitude E7450 laptop. After reinstalling Realtek audio drivers, issue was resolved

    I too have the same problem, but only in meetings of 5 or more people. In meetings of 4 or less people, my microphone works just fine. ¿What could be the problem?

    Ironically, I was able to resolve this issue on a Dell 7410 laptop by downgrading the drivers.  They had the latest Dell drivers installed (8/2020).  After uninstalling the drivers, Windows detected the sound card drivers as Windows Audio Device with drivers dated 9/2019.  

    For reference, point to point calls on the computer were fine within Teams.  The only time the low volume happened was when in a meeting.

    My audio drivers are up to date but the issue persists. For me the only solution was to use a USB microphone.
