Configuring your audio and video for Microsoft Teams

To set up your default audio and video devices for Teams calls:

1. Make sure your desired audio and video devices are plugged in, if any.
2. Click on your profile icon at the top right of your Teams window, then click Settings.
   
3. A Settings pop-up window will appear. On the left, navigate to Devices. From there, you can select your desired default audio and video devices.
   
   1. If you select headphones as your default audio device, we recommend setting your computer's built-in speakers as the Secondary Ringer, otherwise an incoming call ringtone can only be heard from the headphones. 

NOTE: If you're using an older Polycom phone with Teams, think of it as a USB headset with a fancier, bulkier base. If you're using a newer Yealink phone with Teams, you'll have some more advanced functionality and features available to you.
