thanks for your reply. It's not me that has the echoing but the people on the other end who have invited me to their Teams meetings via their business/work Teams accounts. They are getting echoing. I have a SurfacePro 8 with built in microphone and speakers. This has only become a problem in the last 2 months and I have found many other people have reported the same issue on another Microsoft Community group.

There are many different things that could be causing your issue. Could you explain the issue in a bit more detail? Does the echoing start immediately when you start a meeting or does it gradually start and get worse as the meeting goes on? Also what type of mic and headphones/speakers are your using? Is it a headset with microphone or are you using a combo of desk mic and speakers?

I have had similar issues when using built-in mic and speakers in meetings. Have you tried using some type of headset of earbuds? Sometimes when using speakers in a meeting the mic picks up the sounds coming from the speakers creating a loop and the person one the other end hearing their own voice in a second or 2 delay. Though that should not be an issue when using built-in speaker with a SurfacePro. It should filter out the incoming sound from the mic but maybe it has a glitch after a recent update. To test if that is the issue you could try a test call with the volume turned down so you can barely hear it and see if the echo sound is still there or if it has got any better. If so then I would recommend using some type of headset for your meetings.
You can also try disabling audio enhancements.- JC1961Dec 11, 2023Copper ContributorThanks again Jesse. I had a Teams interview a couple of days ago and the person on the other end didn't have any echoing and I don't have any echo at all. Maybe it is a case by case basis and obviously a problem with their end as I use the built in speakers/microphone in my Surface Pro8 and don't have an echo.
