Microsoft Teams Banner Notifications Appearing Black

caggarwal We escalated this issue to Microsoft and they came back and acknowledged it as an issue. The workaround for now is to disable GPU acceleration in Chrome and close/restart Teams. Microsoft will include a fix in an upcoming release as of 5/5/2020.

Jason Thurston This is happening again and disabling GPU/hardware acceleration in all browsers has no effect. Is this happening to anyone else? The majority of people who I've spoken with here at work are experiencing the same.

DavidJustice disabling hardware acceleration in Chrome worked for me.

DavidJustice Hello David, we are still working with the temporary solution which was disabling the GPU in the browsers and that seems to be working. We also had an issue with our BeyondTrust Privilege Management client where it seemed to interfere with Teams launching properly and caused the burnt toast notification to reappear in some instances.
- Disabling the GPU was Microsoft temp solution.
- In opening a case with Microsoft they found a permissions issue with the directories/executables below and BeyondTrust was going to have to resolve that issue.

- ZlatkoSMay 13, 2021Copper ContributorIs there meanwhile permanent solution provided by Microsoft? Since the initial issue was reported back in May 2020.

I encountered this same issue a week or so ago. I am running the Teams Desktop app. All alerts appear in "burnt toast." I tried disabling and then closing out of Teams and then re-enabling the banner notifications, but that did not work. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I have this issue with a user at the moment and we have just started using Beyond Trust, was you able to solve this?
