Aftershokz headset alerting me that my Teams call is muted

I have the same question posed in this previous thread, but the solution hasn't worked for me. https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msteams/forum/all/double-beep-when-muted-on-teams-aftershokz/d67018d1-7081-4acf-b688-bf947a524058?page=1

In short, no matter how I try to mute my mic, the headset tells me mute is on and double-beeps every few seconds. It happens if I mute the call, mute in call settings, or even if I simply mute in my laptop's sound settings.

Teams does NOT alert me that I'm muted if I use a different headset or no headset -- only using the Aftershokz headset. This is an Aftershokz problem, not a Teams problem, but Aftershokz tech support has been unhelpful. I'm hoping someone here has a workaround.

This problem cropped up last fall, went away, and now is back.

    I found one workaround which is similar to using the MS teams in Chrome,

    Connect to the MS teams call from your phone, I did that to test and found that from my S20FE android, MS teams I can join the same call and the beeping is gone.

    Hence this is a issue with MS teams app on Windows 10

    This did not work for me.

    I also tried within team notification options "windows control" and "built-in teams control".

    Neither fixed it.

    But fortunately for those who can use Teams from Crome or Edge, you can join meetings through that and there are no alerts.

    Hello

    I have the same issue with an Aftershockz headset when using the headset with MS TEAMS

    This issue appears recently and it is very annoying, before in the same condition it was ok. I dont know which version of MS TEAMS provide this issue.

    I did not try to use TEAMS within the browser, I will next.

    But I hope MS will provide a fix for this regression

    Regards

    Yes this solved my problem also. But if I unmute in teams and mute again, I have to do the trick again...very annoying!
