Can you mute by default whenever you enter a TEAMS meeting? I know this option is available in WebEx, but can't seem to find it in the settings in TEAMS.

    Just use Zoom it doesn't suck quite as much, and they do listen and act on user feedback.

    I am still amazed that despite MS rolling out several Teams updates almost every month, this simple feature is yet a distant reality.

    As below, before you enter a Teams meeting, in the pre-meeting window, make sure you tick 'Computer audio'.

    Hard to believe this SIMPLE fix is still a problem for people. I barely use Teams and this is always an annoyance. I use Zoom and this has been an option for years. Crazy M$ wont fix it.

    Yes. It drives home the meme that was going around the internet about the advancements that Microsoft made in quantum computing. The line was something like "Microsoft will literally create a new form of matter before it will fix Teams".
