Dial Tone in Microsoft Teams Meeting
amoller Avoid Island mode is the lesson, there a many problems like this.
For this also check the settings for your headset, there are settings for dialtones in them too. This is an example from Plantronics Hub.

LinusCansby I found that uninstalling the plantronics hub software resolved the dial tone and hang up tone that I was experiencing during team calls.

LinusCansby Unfortunately it is not as simple as avoiding Islands Mode.
Skype for Business is causing the dial-tone, as when exited it stops.
- JacoboOrtizJun 19, 2020Copper ContributorI actually tested relaunching Skype after exited and the dial-tone comes back. Seems to be the cause to me.

Hi, Did you identify the cause of this issue, we are experiencing the same problem, usually with the first call of each day. We have a call open with MS for it, but as we cannot systematically recreate the problem troubleshooting is proving difficult.
Cheers
