Teams Voice, Simultaneous Ring Functionality

Question

We have simultaneous ring policy setup. Four people are in this queue. One of the three is on the phone and is primarily responsible for answering the calls. This person has now hung up and needs to answer the call which is now ringing on the other three agent's phones. This agent cannot get the call to ring on their phone. They then have to run to one of the other agent's desks and answer it there. (We are using Yealink MP54 handsets for MS Teams vs. soft phones.) How can we or should we set this up so the busy agent is automatically included when they're no longer busy?
