I can't hear the other person. I can't find where in the app to test my audio settings.

    In Teams open Settings -> Devices. What exactly is the name of the device you have selected there as your Speaker?

    If you cannot hear other person, let me know the name of the app.

    I’m eager to hear back and work together to find a solution.

    To test audio in the Windows App, you can follow these steps:

    1. Open Windows App: Launch the application on your device.
    2. Check Audio Settings: Go to the settings or preferences section within the app. Look for options related to audio or sound settings.
    3. Select Audio Output: You may find options to choose your audio output device. Ensure that the correct device is selected (e.g., speakers or headphones).
    4. Test Audio: If the app provides a test sound option, use it to check if you can hear audio. If not, you may need to conduct a call or use a test feature if available.
    5. Microphone Settings: Ensure your microphone is enabled and configured correctly in the app settings. You can also test your microphone by speaking and checking if the app registers your voice.

    If you still cannot hear the other person, consider checking your system audio settings or consulting your administrator for further assistance.
