Basically:
control panel > hardware and sound > sound > tab communication, select do nothing
I have tried this but it did not help. The "Do nothing" option is not being honored by teams.
Also tried disabling Exclusive mode but it did not help. "Allow applications to take exclusive control of this device"
And "Noise suppression" option in teams does also not fix the issue.

Thank you ReTechNL for this. This worked for me.
For clarification purposes. This is under Sound Control Panel, then playback tab. Then in the properties section of the device you would like to change.
- Locate the speaker device you would like to change.
- Right click then properties.
- Then under speaker properties, click the Advanced tab.
- Now under Advanced tab, there is a section called Exclusive Mode. Uncheck both "Give Exclusive mode applications priority" and Allow applications to Take exclusive control of this device."
- Clicking apply and restarting Microsoft Teams resolved my issue with the sound ducking.
Gamdol SimonG2085 copying you both on, as this worked. I didn't see this early on in the thread. Hope this helps anyone else. Many Thanks!
- I tried a few things and now while set to "do nothing" and turning off exclusive mode in the speakers properties solved the problem for me
