Investigating

We are aware of an issue affecting a number of users in their meetings in Microsoft Teams. It manifests as an error message "Cannot start closed captions" after joining the meeting. Consequently, no transcript is being captured.

We're looking for both a workaround and a long-term fix at the moment.
