Allow muting a person only for me
Sometimes I am in a meeting where one of the persons in the meeting is actually near me in the world outside the screen. In this case the sound is a bit maddening since there is a small delay between...
If I'm in a conference room, it's pretty easy for me to mute my speaker on my laptop and then one click to unmute it when the meeting is done. Then I don't have to hear it twice. ;^) That has been the easiest way to handle it since Teams meetings first came out.
HI Karen,
As Ascendor says, voice isolation can't solve this issue. This is specifically for joining meetings when you are in the office with multiple people within the room joining the same conference on their own devices, not a conference room, where everyone in the room is listening to the same audio source, and using a room system.
As discussed before, the main issue is that the audio feed to your own device is a mix minus feed, and not a feed specific and customisable to yourself.
If it was, we then may be able to mute individuals that are in our office, without affecting other feeds.
What would be MUCH better, was if MS used Bluetooth beaconing, so people in the same meeting within a certain distance had their audio auto-muted (with the assumption you can hear them talking in the room).
