Recent update to Teams causes beeping in headset when on mute

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!

    I just gave it a try, and it didn't work. One of the things that mystifies me is that I can't recreate the problem on my computer. Both mine and my coworker's have the same version of Windows and the same version of Teams (1.5.00.11163).

    I also did not experience the issue in the browser version. BUT, I prefer to use the desktop app anyway. My efforts this morning seem to have fixed the issue, though.
