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.

    Try running a Teams meeting test in the Settings menu under Devices. Get close to the Mic and talk as loud as you can, if it plays back as a very low voice then what you are experiencing is a Driver issue not a Windows Teams issue. You will need to contact the the hardware provider (Dell, Lenovo, etc...) it would be an issue they need to fix.

    This isn't the case for me.  Zoom, join.me, etc all work with expected volumes (I'm using a logitec headset).  When using Teams, and ONLY Teams, the volume is extremely low.  For me, this is an app issue, not a driver issue.  If other apps are working as expected, then so should Teams...

    I was also under the same impression. All other apps worked fine except Teams. Latest updates to

    software would have caused this issue. But it started working after updating the audio drivers in my laptop.
