New Teams - Video freezing
Not quite what seems to have fixed it for me, but it did lead me to find a Windows service called 'NahimicService'. I stopped and disabled the service and can confirm that New Teams is working for me now in the small amount of testing I have done.

You will likely lose some of the functionality of your audio settings after this. Nahimic gets installed with Asus Sonic Studio which allow many of the functions in Realtek Audio Console to work. I went through this when I built this PC, I was like "WTH is that" and "do I really need Sonic Studio" and removed it, only to find later that I could no longer use the EQ or distance or level settings for the speakers. Even though the settings themselves are in a completely different app (Realtek Audio Concole), apparently Sonic Studio provides whatever services that actually makes them work. Needless to say it went back on, and removing it is not an option, at least for me unless I want my 5.1 speakers to sound lousy.
MSI and probably others use Nahimic as well.
- Yeah, not a problem for me. I'm ok to disable the service.
Just had a bunch of Teams meetings this afternoon with zero issues. For me, this is fix will do.
