No Microphone and Camera redirection support in WVD clients
HandA Note Teams generally does not (yet) support VDI, this is not limited to WVD. General support for Teams in VDI was announced recently: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/Microsoft-Teams-Blog/What-s-new-in-Microsoft-Teams-the-Enterprise-Connect-feature/ba-p/376255
Historically also SfB only supported real-time communication in VDI in combination with Citrix HDX, similar above mentioned blog also mentions that the Teams team is looking into this scenario.
MS is hinting on something coming up for meetings and calling: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/teams-for-vdi
"The Teams calling and meeting experience isn't optimized for a VDI environment (coming soon)."
For now it is advised to turn off all calling and meeting features, which is (in my case) not an option because all users have other devices (besides WVD) which do have those camera and microphone capabilities. Besides WVD is in Preview so we will just have to explain why it's not working. I do hope for a speedy addition of calling and meeting capabilities before WVD will go GA. Hopefully without going the Citrix route...

Hi all, can anyone confirm if mic, audio and camera redirection are now working on WVD? Thanks!
