    PDostiyar This behavior actually appears to be working as Microsoft intended.  In this article, it states:

     

    What happens to the new meeting experience if I sign out of Teams or switch to a different Teams org?
    If you sign out or switch to a different Teams org (also known as a "tenant"), you'll have to turn on the new meeting experience again. Follow the instructions for turning it on in Settings and restarting Teams.

    Microsoft is supposed to be changing that option to be defaulted to On and you have to opt out in the near future which will then keep the box checked even after a sign out.

I am following this like a hawk as it's giving our users nightmares. But our problems are in reverse, we have set up a lot of Call Queues and having this feature on causes the calls to drop upon answer. So I am desperatly trying to work out a way of trying to switch this off for certain users, whilst we await the new release. If I change the callingMWEnabledPreferenceKey in powershell parameter to false, Teams just ignores it after a reboot and it's still set to on in the teams settings.
