After Windows 11 upgrade Bluetooth audio not working only with teams
- Jan 25, 2022
Happy to report that this fixed the issue for me: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/fix-for-bluetooth-headphones-or-speaker-using/7023c43b-c001-42e9-9ec9-95a8f96a4b4c
Additionally to this instruction I had to change the Spatial sound Type. Just change the selection from Off to Windows Sonic for Headphones or vise versa (!)
It doesn't mean that headphones works only with the particular Spatial sound Type, there is enough just to switch between them. The another interesting thing is, that after I do that change in Spatial sound Type first time and headset works in the particular Teams meating, I am able to switch between those both Types (Off or Windows Sonic.......) without any impact on headset work.
System -> Sound -> Particular Headset -> Spatial sound: Type (droplist)
Sometimes I have to repeat this step.
So in my case, after trying all the unpairing repairing, shutting down Teams and re-open etc..., finally I ended up making it work this way:
- Open Control Panel
- Open Devices and Printer
- Double click the headset to open the <Bluetooth headset> properties
- Go to tab Services
- Uncheck everything except Handsfree Telephony (in my case: Audio Sink, Remote Control, Remotely Controllable Device)
- Apply and close.
Works perfectly now. Looks like Teams "was thinking too hard" about this, and paring it down to the basic functionality gave it no choice.
