Loud Beeping when Muted in a MS Teams Call

When using my Aftershokz OpenComm during a call, I hear a loud beeping noise when I mute myself during the call. This beeping only goes away when I unmute. I've contacted Aftershokz, and they've assured me this is due to a recent MS Teams update causing connectivity issues.

I've also read other non-Microsoft forums and realize this is apparently an issue since 2021 with MS Teams and multiple brands of headphones/headsets. However, it only recently started for me today, April 18, 2022.

Is Microsoft doing anything to solve this issue? Is there a solution to this?

It seems to be making many users upset and frustrated. I'm surprised Microsoft hasn't addressed this yet.

    It is very annoying, only tip I have is if you are attending a conference that forces you on Mute do it via the web Teams client as the beeping does not happen on that version.

    BTW: My system is using the Intel Bluetooth stack, I wondered if it is this that is the problem as I know one solution that AfterShokz has provided via warranty was to send out a bluetooth dongle.

    This worked for me on Win10, but anytime I unmute and mute I have to go through the steps again. I wonder if this in development item will help. It at least will let us use the standard buttons.

    I know that there shouldn't be one, but maybe a difference between the 32 and 64 bit builds?

    I'm just really happy my ears are no longer being assaulted by that beeping.

    Updated mine as well but Shokz OpenRun Pro still have the same beeping.

    Only workaround that works for me is changing microphone in teams to computer. When I need to respond back to the meeting, I'm at the ready to change it back and unmute.

    Seems like every teams update they fix 1 thing and break 2. Never-ending.
