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.

    Hey Microsoft. It is ENTIRELY UNACCEPTABLE that this is such an obvious and glaring bug with Teams and we are getting no response on this. Months have gone by on this thread alone since anyone from Microsoft responded.

    Are Microsoft engineers aware of this issue?!

    What is being done to fix this issue?!

    What is the timeline for when this issue will be fixed?!!?!?

    This is seriously hampering my ability to do my job. I am stuck using Teams for work and one of the CORE FUNCTIONALITIES of the app is entirely busted and the only help we got MONTHS AGO is "clear cache and reinstall".

    We can't rewrite your code for you. It's clear that there is a bug in your software that needs fixing and there are upset (I am irate) customers who are getting absolutely no answer from you. This is disgustingly absurd! We demand a response immediately.

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

    Try the workaround from the comments. Disconnect your Bluetooth device and then once you are in the call connect it to your phone and then the Bluetooth option should appear.

    I gave up on teams. So can't say if it still works for Android 13 but it usually worked for me on 12. Every now and then I'd have to try a couple times.
