People can’t hear me in a Teams meeting
Three usual suspects: wrong device, Windows mic permission, hardware mute.
- In the meeting, click the three dots (···) → Device settings.
- Check the Microphone dropdown is the right device — not a Bluetooth headset that’s not paired, not “Stereo Mix”.
- Speak normally — the level bar should bounce.
- Nothing bouncing? Go to Windows Settings → Privacy & Security → Microphone, and make sure Teams is allowed.
- Some headsets have a physical mute switch on the cable — check it.
- Last resort: unplug and replug the headset, then restart Teams.
Still stuck after those?
