Hi Steve1969, Zshandi, nv_jbonnier, Goobaroo, sharpjoe, bmcbrearty, rodolphepaccard, on behalf of the product team, I'd like to apologize that we broke some of your current scenarios by introducing this feature. Currently, there is no switch to disable this capability altogether. We will definitely consider it for V2 of this feature.
As other commenters have already identified, an workaround to disable this feature is to turn off Noise Suppression in Teams Settings as this feature doesn't work when Noise Suppression is off.
Meanwhile, to keep your hand raised and maintain your spot in the raise hand queue, please select "Keep it raised" button on the notification.

anachetrari as said in my post, I have never seen the "Keep it raised" button notification.
- sharpjoeMay 10, 2023Copper ContributorThat works well for us in the sense that it pops up but is subtle and goes away. Next meeting put your hand up and start talking and look in the middle of the teams window at the top. The notification toast drops down from the center top of the window with the team member avatars/cams hangs out and then if you don't click puts your hand down. But if you were looking at a share or answering a question and not really looking at the window it's super subtle which I am sure it attempting to not be distracting.
