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.

    I had this same problem recently, seemingly triggered by a Teams software update.

    However... after reseting the (AfterShokz) headset and enabling multi pairing it seems to have fixed the problem

    I have MultiPoint Paring on as well but it is still giving me a beep.

    I did reset it several times.

    Another workaround I saw on this recently using the Windows' Sound properties to switch mute on/off does work but you have to keep the Sound properties window ready to access it.

    It appears you are correct, using the web version of Teams there is no beeping.

    Open settings and click reset to the Microsoft recommended defaults. Beeping stopped immediately
