You'd think all the niggling foibles of a badly designed Slack wannabe would become very well broadcast during a Pandemic where WFH is necessary. There is no reason why in 2021 we should be begging M$FT to implement a default device override for our equipment. And if the program has defaulted to some other interface because Teams is monitoring the interfaces, and your headset or mic decided to go to sleep or is being used by another application, it takes sometimes RESTARTING TEAMS to get it to play ball with my setup. Especially on something where you can receive a call at a moment's notice, and then need to fumble to get your headset on and the right Mic interface selected.
If we have a default setup, we should be able to set that as a default and have only that setup be used. However, that's also Micro$oft Teams trying to be smarter than it's user. Thank does that because the Yeti products have an in-mic monitoring port for headphones and it figures you'll want to use one interface for your audio. Does anyone have any hints or clues to help us out? Any help will be greatly appreciated. I and many other users at my company have noticed this behavior. However, other meeting software like Zoom and Cisco Webex automatically default to my headset (or whatever new sound device is plugged in) each time without me having to disable other sound devices or re-select it from the Zoom/Webex devices menu.
Teams only defaults back if every other sound option is disabled from the sound control panel. It will remain defaulted to my PC speakers and internal microphone. I've found that even after unplugging my docking station and only having my PC speakers and internal microphone as options, Teams will not automatically default back to my headset. My headset will appear in device options in Teams and I have to re-select it there in order to use it in -teams again.
(My headset is defaulted for all sound devices) When I plug it back in, my docking station remains as default without automatically placing my headset back as default. When I unplug my headset, Teams defaults to my docking station. I use a usb headset for teams/ meetings and calls. I use a Lenovo X1 carbon 6th Generation laptop along with a Thunderbolt Docking station.
