You bet, I have looked around for an answer to this for about two hours before posting here. No one's situation seems to be identical to mine and the info on how to fix the issue that are similar is never clear/in one place/from one poster/up to date...
Workaround from Joe_S_Hunter here: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/microsoft-teams/one-user-cannot-take-control-during-a-screen-sharing-session/m-p/1635132/highlight/true#M71096
Might have a fix, once you are in the call and youve been given control, Click the chat menu so the call drops to a small window.
Then double click that and the control returns as normal.
