An exciting new item has made its way onto the Microsoft 365 Roadmap – the ability to share system audio in a Teams meeting:
Why is this exciting? I hear the complaint a lot from people who present in meetings that when they play video clips, the participants can’t hear the audio. It’s a small thing, but if you’re in Sales or Marketing, it’s a critical thing. I know people schedule meetings on platforms other than Microsoft Teams because they know they need to present video. I’ve also seen presenters link to a YouTube video and then try and coordinate all participants to start watching at the same time!

@Tom MorganThis is spectacular news.
The room systems all the way back to Lync Room Systems (LRS) had this limitation since there was never an audio channel that was available for content share on Lync or Skype and I have heard the complaints for many years. I hope its coming to the MTR solutions as well when in Teams meetings. This will be a nice differentiator and help with the "Why go to Teams messaging!" that I have been delivering to customers for a few years now.

@David Wrigley It's very close to release, but as with all these features it'll need to meet Microsoft's quality bar before we all get to use it.

@Tom Morgan will this feature be available for presenters for Live Events as well?

@Tom MorganHi! Thank you for all of your informative posts. I work at a major university in Texas and we have been using teams, love it. We were all curious about this function as well, and yesterday randomly, we see this (below) and it works. When did Microsoft release this?!? I may have a bet with my boss-thank you in advance.

@charles1290 There was an update to the May 10 feature notice on the MS Message Center:
"We'll be gradually rolling this out to Teams customers starting July 22 (previously early-June), and we anticipate rollout completion by the end of August (previously June)."

@Tom Morgan, this is nice to see that it is rolling out and our Windows users have it and I hope it comes to the Mac soon for those users as well as iOS and Android users. In addition, I'd like to see it come to the Surface Hub and maybe even for the web app for Teams! Anyone at Microsoft know when and if any of these devices will support system audio outside of Windows????

@Tom Morgan This is very good feature. When or how will this work with Teams Live Events? Or does it not?
