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.

    It is sad to see that this problem is still not solved. I can use by Bluetooth earphones with any apps on my android phone except Teams.

    Surprisingly the same issue resurfaced again since a couple of months and continued to be there even with the latest version of MS Teams available in market (v1416). None of the remedies really resolved the issue yet. Looks like MS needs to do a better version controlling of their codes. Meanwhile, if anyone has any workaround for this issue with the recent version, please let me know.

    You're right, it stopped working after the last update. The bluetooth device is listed, works with everything else (Signal, Whatsapp, Zoom, music, Threema, you name it) but not with Teams.
    Come on Microsoft, how hard can it be? On Windows and MacOS it works perfect, just not the Android App.

    Another frustrated user here.

    Suddenly I have the same problem. Android phone, fully updated. 2 Bluetooth headphones that work with any other app and used to work with the Teams app too.

    Now both don;t work anymore which is a serious issue for my work routine.

    Tried everything. Clearing cache and storage. All permissions on. Reinstalling app. Reinstalling the bluetooth devices. Rebooting phone. Nohthing works. I'm quite tech savvy and have a high perseverance for fixing these kind of bugs so this is getting really frustrating.
