Quick Assist echo while on Teams

This happens when you are in a Teams meeting and you have to use Quick Assist to connect to the client.

Best / Recommended Fix

Mute Quick Assist audio on your PC

Quick Assist itself doesn’t have a “mute” button, but Windows lets you mute it per app.

  1. Right‑click the speaker icon in the system tray
  2. Click Open Volume mixer
  3. Look for Quick Assist (or sometimes Remote Desktop / System Sounds)
  4. Mute it or drag its volume to 0

Teams audio will continue normally
Echo stops immediately
