Add a "don't show again" option to the "speaker volume is too low" message

Speaker volume is too low or microphone volume is too low.
Assuming that it is the microphone volume, how do you sound on a conference vs other people? The mic too low appears when your audio is low. It's not there to nag you, it's telling you that there is a problem.
And just because you've gotten it to work everywhere else, doesn't mean that it will work on Teams. Because in reality, I'm pretty sure that you haven't gotten it to work with "every audio-enabled application" on all platforms. But I do know that on each platform, there are a lot of tweaks that have to be done to enable foreign hardware to work.
It can be as simple as increasing the microphone volume in Windows.
A don't show again button wouldn't be recommended, as the popup is there for a reason.

EWoodrickYeah, I've done all of these tweaks. I can hear my coworkers fine (remember my message is about the speaker volume). The problem is the message that constantly shows, reminding me that I might want to change my settings. But I haven't changed my settings because they are correct. I want to tell it that this volume level is correct. Let me take care of my own problems please. I can take some patronizing the first time I'm using a piece of software, but constantly forever is very grating.
