Been using Teams since the start of lockdown with a headset. As of today I am getting a double-beep at about five second intervals (like a hold beep) in the headset when I am muted. This has not happened before and been using same headset for months.
Also note that when I mute / unmute in Teams, the headset now announces "mute on" and "mute off" to me.
This feels like a Teams update has created this "feature" - please turn it off!

The two beeps are because your mic is muted through your headphones rather than the teams only.
On aeropex aftershokz, I have to press and hold "+" & "-" at the same time until the voice says "muted" or "unmuted". This turns the beeping off.
From https://uk.shokz.com:
To mute the microphone, press and hold the volume+ and volume- buttons simultaneously for two seconds while on a call. Audrey will say “Mute on.” To unmute the microphone, press and hold the volume+ and volume- buttons simultaneously for two seconds while on a call with the mic muted.
Let us know if this fixes it. I'm in the Shokz club that's suffering with this issue. It's extremely annoying that it's clearly a Teams issue and doesn't seem to get any traction.
I resorted to attending Teams meetings this morning via the web browser - just because of this annoyance. I confirmed that other coworkers are also seeing (hearing) the same issue.
Same issue started for me today after 2 years of pandemic use. I'm using a Soul BT Headset with the MS teams application and while muted I get the periodic beep. To top it off the "Mute On", "Mute Off" notification in the headset is quite loud each time toggle the mic setting in Teams.
I can find no option to revert this function in Teams.
