Microsoft Teams app controls the notification sounds etc. and creates another thread for meetings called "Microsoft Teams Helper." You need to control this thread in the More Apps dropdown menu, marked as red below.

@kristofk Thanks for that ...but I tried to do the same but it didn't work :(
Maybe I need to restart teams?....or the system?

@phot0n Restarting is worth a try. Also, #268 has a bit more info. Does any of that help?

[phot0n]

@kyleneideck thanks for such quick reply :)
As it turns out that teams was not routing the audio through background-music. Doing that fixed the issue for me.
Thanks again :)

@kyleneideck thanks for your reply. I was pulling my hair trying to figure out why Teams was not working with this. Turns out, like you said, I need to go into Teams and use Background-Music as the input/output

Can be closed as its duplicate of #268 and seems to be resolved using the helper?

[kyleneideck]

I think we should still fix it so you can use the main slider instead of the helper ones, but yeah it looks like a duplicate to me, too. Closing, thanks.
