I am re-installing Microsoft Teams on my Mac due to it being unresponsive for long periods of time (screen share capabilities, cursor not being recognized in chat, camera settings, etc.)

I am prompted with 2 options at installation - one for Microsoft Teams and another package is Teams Audio Driver.

What is Teams Audio Driver? I can't find any resources about it. Thank you.234636-screen-shot-2022-08-24-at-31152-pm.png

    Hi @Shannon McCormick

    I believe this has to do with sharing sound on MS Teams. You will be prompted to download the driver when sharing your screen and "including your sound".

    See the following article for information about the driver:
