Sharing screen on Microsoft Teams using VoiceOver

Hello all,

I am trying to share my screen on the iPhone while in a Teams meeting, so that the phone screen is mirrored on the computer. This is unfortunately proving to be difficult using VoiceOver.

I do the following:

1. Join the Teams meeting on the computer.
2. Join the same Teams meeting on the phone without audio.
3. Click on Share and then Share Screen.
4. On activating the Share Screen button, VoiceOver announces that the audio is either turned on or off, but doesn't share the screen itself. My colleagues are able to share the screen when VoiceOver is turned off and then activate VoiceOver. However, this is proving difficult to do when VoiceOver is on, which I need.

Any tips on how to get around this problem would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
