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.

    Thank you for sharing. Turning on "Nearby Devices" fixed the issue for me.

    Hi,

    Even I am facing the same issue. It is definitely an issue with the teams app. I have tried it with pixel buds pro. Interestingly it switches to Bluetooth when I get a normal phone call and back to speaker when I cancel that call.

    Thanks

    Sai

    I had this issue too. Everything else could use my galaxy buds but teams didnt even have a bluetooth icon. I found I needed to go to apps/permission manager and turn on "Nearby Devices"

    Thank you! It finally worked. While in the call, I disconnected the Bluetooth headset and connected again. Teams audio directly went to the Bluetooth device. Let's see how long it stays like that. I was trying to get the audio working for Galaxy Buds Pro.

    Thanks, I'll try that. I'm hopeful, as I'm tied to teams for work.
