My Teams doesn't use default speaker for notifications. I'm using Teams over citrix workspace. Default speaker is laptop speaker, additional device is headset. Teams notifications are played on headset speaker. All other apps (eg. outlook) play notifications on laptop speaker. As soon as I disconnect my headset, Teams plays notifications on laptop speaker. Based on this observation I rule out citrix workspace as a root cause. I would like to use headset only for calls and hear notifications on default speaker. I went through all settings that came to mi mind and couldn't solve this mystery myself. Could you please advise what I can do to get Teams notifications on default speaker?
