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.

    *** BRILLIANT *** I have a Polytronic BT600 wireless headset and while in the Teams call switching in the teams settings once to the PC microphone and then back to the BT600 solved the SUPER-ANNYONG-DOUBLE-BEEP-FOR-NOTHING-THANK-YOU-MICROSOFT issue... looking forward to the behavior in the next call and if this "hack" needs to be done in every call... but at least it seems to be a "solution".

    Well, sorry to hear that you have already paid for it.

    For all other AfterShokz OpenComm users out there:

    You shouldn't have to pay for that! Just call the AfterShokz support and describe this issue and ask them to send the dongle to you for free.

    Aftershokz is sending me a dongle which in theory should solve it. Finger crossed!

    Any update? As this issue has persisted without any solution I think that I'm returning these aftershokz opencomm headphones

    I have the same issue. I turn the Aftershokz headphones off and back on to stop the beeping.
