Audio output through bluetooth not working in teams app android

I  am  using Teams  app  android  to  attend  my online classes  but I am facing issues  with bluetooth speaker. I wanted  to  use  Nest  mini  for  audio  output so  I   paired  to  it through bluetooth  on  my android device and  audio  output of  all  the  apps  work  except teams. This  issue  seems  to  be  only  on  android  app  because on  the  desktop app on  windows 10 the  same  speaker  works  absolutely fine. In  the  android app  when  I  try  to  switch  the  audio  output to  bluetooth, within  a  second it  switches  back  to  device  audio. I  tried on another android device as  well  but no luck. I  am  running the  latest  teams  version  (as  no  updates  available in  Play  store). Any  help  is  welcome.

    Allowing nearby devices helped me (in settings->apps->teams).

    I had the same issue. I solved it by going on teams app authorizations on Android settings. By default teams was not authorized to connect to nearer devices.

    This was the only permission not allowed on the app once i turned it on. Worked perfectly. Thank you

    Confirming this worked for me as well. This "allow nearby devices" must be a permission that gets turned off every so often with updates as I've used teams before with bluetooth headphones and then it just stopped working. This has happened several times before but managed to get resolved on its own. This direct action has fixed it for me. Thanks.
