    PeterRising Respectfully - the issue doesn't seem to be with MacOS.  In every other program the sony software works splendidly.  It is only an issue in Teams.  Microsoft, G-d bless them, has a long history of making their Mac versions of the software second class citizens to the PC version.  I understand why, but this is certainly an example of that.  Not of Apple or Sony not doing their due dilligence.

      I created an idea on the Microsoft Teams UserVoice site. Please upvote if you want them to see and make this integration a priority.
