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!

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It Works! I can't believe it! The Setting is in Teams.
Your very lucky to be able to use the headphone Sennheiser HB450T, and I to also have other headsets that, but this reply perhaps does not understand
for some that have hearing difficulties that the Aftershokz bone conducting is an option which improves the ability for some to hear correctly. Using the Aftershokz was a huge improvement for me. However, unlike standard headphones, and for me and perhaps others the beeping being in the higher frequency level is not only annoying but slightly painful. The bottom line is I don't care who sorts this out, but I suspect that since Microsoft introduced it then they have a responsibility to work with Aftershokz to find a solution that helps the deaf community.
Effectively, I don't have the bip on Teams Online and I'm using a headphone Sennheiser HB450T
I think this is the correct answer, that the beep comes form the firmware of the headsets. I am using a Poly Voyager Focus 2 headset and the only solution I've found is to uninstall the Poly software, as well as turning off bluetooth and only using the dongle it comes with.
Not willing to defend Microsoft but their only mistake has been to enable the support of bluetooth hands-free profile which was theoretically the right thing to do. The beep comes from the firmware of the headsets. Sennheiser removed it. All headset manufacturers could do the same or at least make it less noisy... Microsoft not using the hands-free profile would be a workaround for something they are not responsible for, that's probably the reason why they don't address this issue.
