Teams Voicemail appended recording missing in audio attachment (Exchange 2019 on-prem)
Hello,
We are experiencing a very specific issue with **Microsoft Teams Phone System voicemail** in a hybrid environment and I’m trying to determine if this is a limitation or a configuration problem.
### Environment
* Microsoft Teams Phone System (Cloud Voicemail)
* Resource Accounts, Auto Attendants and Call Queues
* SBC (Direct Routing) – working normally
* Hybrid identity (AAD Connect)
* **Exchange Server 2019 on-premises mailboxes (NO Exchange Online mailbox)**
Voicemail messages are delivered successfully to users in Outlook via email and transcription works.
---
### The problem
When a caller leaves a voicemail and simply records a message → everything is normal.
However, if the caller uses the **voicemail review menu** after recording:
> presses **#** and then selects **“4 – continue recording”**
the caller records a second part of the message (appended recording segment).
Result we observe:
| Component | Behavior |
| ---------------------------------- | ---------------------------------- |
| Voicemail transcription | Contains BOTH parts of the message |
| Audio attachment in Outlook (.wav) | Contains ONLY the first recording |
| Delivery | Successful (no NDR) |
So the voicemail transcription is complete, but the audio attachment is truncated to the first segment.
This only occurs when the caller chooses **continue recording** and creates a multi-segment voicemail.
Has anyone else seen appended or multi-segment voicemail recordings being truncated when delivered to **Exchange on-premises mailboxes**?
Is this a known limitation of Cloud Voicemail delivery to legacy/non-Exchange Online mailboxes, or is there a configuration required to properly render appended voicemail recordings?
Any confirmation from others running Teams Phone with Exchange on-prem would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
