Huh. I’m unemployed & job hunting right now, and have had a few interviews via Teams. I’m running Mint and using the Teams web app in Firefox, and for some reason, the sound has never worked properly, so we’ve ended up switching to phone each time. The sound works fine in Zoom. My next interview expects to conduct it via Teams video, so I found a friend with Teams to help me troubleshoot later today. I was thinking maybe it was a Firefox problem, but it works fine in Firefox for you?
Comment on How/why does Microsoft teams exist?

I have to use Teams for work but I’m on Linux so I just use the web app in Firefox. Other then minor, irritating UI decisions (WTF is the ‘Activity’ tab for?) I don’t have any issues. Video calls work fine, screen sharing works, notifications work. When something breaks I just reload the page. If people have so many issues maybe try using the web app?

Thanks and this is very interesting, I am lucky that I have Firefox browser (a very few in my org have the same, I installed ublock origin and ever since IT disabled installation of plugins). Let me test teams on Firefox (hoping it let’s me login), fingers crossed.

Out of curiosity are you on wayland? At some point teams stopped letting me share my screen (there wasn’t even a button) and it was around the time I changed to wayland so that was probably why. I haven’t tried it since then so maybe they fixed it but it was pretty weird.
