Teams away setting automatically switching on when not away

Hi there, 

My teams status is constantly switching to "away" while I am working on my computer. This is very frustrating as my co-workers need to know when I am actually away or available.

Is there a manual override for this? It would be excellent to be able to set it as available so that my team knows they can reach my even if I am working on paper, or in this case if it has switched itself to "away".

Thanks!

    Same thing. I'm working and my Teams which to away while I'm using my mouse and keyboard but haven't done anything in Teams it's for "X" minutes. It's very annoying.
