Finally after creating my fourth MS account, where most even this current one resulted in the loop that my email was already registered with my organization and to use another account, I was able to open the desktop application. However, when I follow a "click here to join meeting" link, Teams does not open the meeting or any dialogue related to it. You have Microsoft Teams Version 1.4.00.4855 (64-bit). Xfce desktop 4.12 Debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster) Kernel 5.9.0-0.bpo.5-amd64

    @ambient

    You need to adjust the last line in /usr/bin/teams

    Change:
    nohup "$TEAMS_PATH" --disable-namespace-sandbox --disable-setuid-sandbox "$@" > "$TEAMS_LOGS/teams-startup.log" 2>&1 &

    To:
    nohup "$TEAMS_PATH" "$@" --disable-namespace-sandbox --disable-setuid-sandbox > "$TEAMS_LOGS/teams-startup.log" 2>&1 &

    Now, we have confirmed that this is a bug. Microsoft will fix it with next version.

    Thanks for your patience and understanding.
