Software and TechnologySoftware Reliability & Performance3MediumGeneral User

Microsoft Teams frequently prevents users from joining calls with an erroneous 'please hang up other call' message, even when they are not in any other call.

Existing solution (Teams) has a bug that falsely detects an ongoing call, blocking new call joins, with no clear way to override or fix.
