Mute/Unmute and leave meeting functions on Plantronics Savi W8220-M (Microsoft Certified) no longer sync with Teams

Until 3 or 4 weeks ago, I was able to use and integrate my Plantronics Savi W8220-M headset with MS Teams.  Now, the mute/unmute function on the headset will work but the status on the screen shows it Unmuted.  Conversely, if the on-screen status is Muted, the mute/unmute button on my headset does not work.  In addition, the headset's Call Control button, used to leave or connect to meetings, no longer works.  I purchased this headset because it was compatible with Skype and Teams... but now it is not.  What has changed?  How can this be resolved?

    I am also experiencing this (Jan 2022).

    • I have uninstalled the plantronics software and reinstalled.
    • I have cleared the cache in Teams. I have uninstalled teams and rebooted.

    Still - during calls or meetings, if I mute my headset it will AUTO UNMUTE immediately.

    Using Zoom - it works perfectly.

    *** UPDATE AS OF 1/14/2022 ***

    I have uninstalled completely and using native windows drivers worked fine.

    • MS Teams worked with muting and unmute - no longer an issue.
    • Zoom continues to work fine.

    I did install the NEW POLYLENS application (version 1.1.10) and it all continues to work fine.

    Hi David,

    Have you tried paring headset once again? Also, sometimes resetting headset helps, please check Plantronics Savi W8220-M user manual and give a try again.

    Regards

    Nik

    Thanks for the prompt response!  I tried it using the web app in the Chrome and Edge Browsers and also the desktop app and it exhibits the same behavior.

    Best,

    David
