Hi all,
This list may not be the right place for this question, but I would appreciate being pointed in the right direction.
Jaws support for MS Teams, particularly reading chat messages, is a little patchy. When a chat/feed message arrives and the screen reader focus is in another window, Jaws simply has an alert message stating that there is a new message. It could instead read out the message text. With active meeting chats this is particularly annoying.
Has anyone found a workaround to resolve this issue?
Many thanks.
Geetha

I do not use Microsoft Teams much at all.
However, have you tried pressing?
