Skype call issues - Bad device state
Hi all, during past two weeks I have noticed increased number of incidents regards Skype for business calls. Users are complaining that suddenly the other end stops hearing them. We have Sky...
So we have contacted Microsoft support ourselves. The plan on how to solve this was addressed very quickly, as we were informed we were not the first ones contacting them regards the same issue.

2. If problem persists check in BIOS if is possible to disable USB 3.0 or through device manager
3. If problem still persists update windows 7 to latest rollup - https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3125574
We applied 1st step for few of our users couple days ago and so far so good, no one reported any problems since then. I really hope that this is the fix for our issues.

Hi Biren,
In our case upgrading USB 3.0 drivers was enough. Have you tried to upgrade usb 3.0 as per MS recommendation?

- That's very unfortunate to hear. I think you should contact MS support so they could give you an advice on your specific issue. Would be nice to hear the outcome.
Yes we have done Bios update and upgrade USB 3.0
