Support device call controls
Support call controls for popular 3rd party headsets (handup, mute) like Plantronics 740-M or Jabra.

Closing Skypr for Business is indeed what MS is reported at https://support.office.com/en-us/article/control-calls-using-a-headset-in-teams-65d6e104-444d-4013-b8c2-f11317dd69a8

After many months of being annoyed by this message I was able to eliminate it by making sure I exit the Skype for Business Service. If Skype is running I constantly get this message in Teams but if I exit (make sure not running in background) the Skype for Business Service I not longer get this message any my headset controls work as expected. Would be nice if this issue could be corrected properly so products could co-exist.

Teams constantly pops a banner across the top: "Call controls on headsets and other devices aren't available right now."
Would love to use my Plantronics 8200 headset (firmware v.402) and BT600 (firmware v.1610), however Teams (1.1.00.31860 (64-bit). last updated 12/10/18). -

Can someone provide a model that Teams is actually working with. We have sent a few Plantronics Voyagers out to a few users and when they call they are muted and can't unmute using the headset. I can send a model that works faster than this issue will be resolved in Teams.

We have been testing Teams and are having the same issues as below and we have numerous different headsets with the same issue(Jabra/Plantronics). The Mute/Unmute button on the actual device/headset does nothing in Teams but works fine in S4B.
This needs resolving. -

Our company uses jabra hsc016 headsets with Skype and we're rolling out Teams to the business. The physical controls currently do not work. Assuming this is more of a Jabra issue than Teams, but posting anyway in hopes of a result.

Great idea. Skype has this to some extent and I don't think it's vendor software functionality.

Same issue with my Logitech headset. The mute button on the headset works in Skype but not in Teams. Teams reports a message of "Call controls on headsets and other devices aren't available right now". Would love to be able to mute from my headset.

Skype supports the Plantronics Savi 700 series with headset call controls. Teams constantly shows the feature isn't supported for headset controls. Please add support for the Plantronics desk headsets.

The "Microsoft Roadmap" shows "Microsoft Teams - Support for features for USB Devices" (Featured ID: 24210) was released in Q2. But, it's not working. Teams constantly tells me that this feature isn't available. I'm using devices that have been "Optimized for Lync/Skype" (i.e. Jabra Speak 510 MS, Jabra Pro 9400 MS, Sennheiser MB Pro1 UC). The call control with Skype for Business works great. None of these are working with Teams.

This should work like Skype for Business. I can't hold calls of value with business partners or customers on Teams without this function.

I use a Jabra (Model #: HSC040W) which has hardware call controls that Teams doesn't recognise.

I have the same issue on Plantronics Blackwire 215/225.

This is also happens with Plantronics Voyager Legend UC, Microsoft. Is there any plans to increase the range of supported headsets for Teams to include other Plantronics headsets that currently work with Skype for Business?
