Make MacOS Edge compatible with MS Teams web
BradSP65 Reported corporately after demonstrating that the issue persists on both Apple Silicon and Intel Macs, with versions of Edge Browser going back a year, and every other chromium browser. With clean installs of MacOS and nothing else deployed to a machine other than the browsers. Up until the end of last month Teams web did not have this problem. Demonstrated that at least firefox can have outgoing video with privacy. The code just does permit incoming video. All data points to a web teams app problem on MacOS. Nothing can be done to maintain privacy. The only work around is to disable privacy.
Microsoftjosh_bodner are Microsoft active contributors to the upstream or purely passive wait until capability is corrected by some one else? The way I read the response the answer is the later? It would be great if Microsoft supported non-chromium based browsers as that would be a great work around in this situation. I guess that means to use Teams web app that customers have to run it without privacy.
- I should also have said rolling back to earlier versions of Chromium does not address the current issue with Web teams problem. So its interesting how it is a chrome issue.

- josh_bodnerAh, if the issue was introduced recently, but reproduces in versions of browsers older than when the issue was introduced, then it's almost certainly an issue with Teams and not the browser itself. Of course, if it IS an issue with the browser, then yes, Microsoft can and does make contributions to Chromium, but that doesn't necessarily mean we WILL in this case.
