Thank you for reaching out. I understand how important it is to have your microphone working properly in Microsoft Teams, and I’m here to help you.

To connect and use your microphone on your laptop with Teams, please follow the steps below:

1. Select your microphone in Teams

Open Microsoft Teams
Go to Settings > Devices
Under Microphone, select your preferred device
Click “Make a test call” to confirm it is working

2. Check microphone permissions on your device

Go to Settings > Privacy & Security > Microphone and ensure microphone access and Teams access are turned on

3. Verify during a meeting

Ensure your microphone is not muted (no line across the mic icon)

Additionally, you may consider referring to the following articles to check if it helps clarify your scenario:
