Same here! Bonkers this has gone away. I've found a workaround, but only for using my Logitech mouse. In the Logi Options+ app, you can set application specific button actions. I've now set Teams to use the back/forward buttons to be assigned to `Alt`+`L` / `R` which is the Teams Keyboard shortcut.

RobDL13 Since my reply earlier, I have used AutoHotKey with my mouse and this simple script:
XButton1::
Send !{Left}
returnXButton2::
Send !{Right}
return
Should work with any mouse as long as you have rights to install the AHK scripting language.
Might break some other programs that do not recognize the `Alt`+`L` / `R` though.
