Hello,_______________________________________________
I've got a Dell laptop. With internal sound card all system audio plays on the background when using teams, jitsi meet and other apps recording sound from the microphone for some misterious reason.
I've got an USB soundcard to compensate for this. Sometimes sounds are catched by the headset microphone when I have higher volume in the headset, but when it's quiet it's all manageable.
I've got a headset connected through a single 3.5mm jack to the soundcard which features microphone switch. When testing for this breakage I did the following:
* Started a recording app like gnome sound recorder capturing the sound from the headset
* Used the headset microphone switch to turn off the microphone.
* Used screen reader a lot.
* Played back the recording and there were screen reader sounds all the time even while I had the microphone disabled with the headset switch.
Greetings
Peter

Hello,
I've seen issues like this in Windows as well, and believe that it partially may be caused by screen reader audio going into the mic. This is probably more true for open-back headsets.
Thanks.

Hello,
How are you connected with your team mates? Through a headset?

First of all, I'm sorry for the off-topic subject, but I honestly don't
know where to post this problem that certainly has nothing to do with
the orca.
I use MS-TEAMS through chromium almost all day because I'm working
remotely and everything works reasonably well, except that from time to
time my colleagues complain that along with my voice they also hear what
is read by the orca.
My current distro is fedora workstation 36 but this also happened when I
had arch installed on another machine.
Usually just restarting the pipewire or unplugging and plugging in the
headset again will make the problem go away, although this doesn't
always work.
Has anyone else had a similar problem and found a solution?
Thanks.
