Teams-for-linux: Camera not detected (while supported in Chromium)

Created on 28 Jun 2019  路  4Comments  路  Source: IsmaelMartinez/teams-for-linux

While the microphone (Lifecam Cinema Analog Mono) is detected fine in the device settings, the camera device of aforementioned USB webcam isn't (and thus the camera toggle is disabled).

In contrast, the USB webcam works just fine in the Teams webapp with Chromium:

Hi, can you fill the issue template? I will avoid going back and forward with simple questions about OS, version, etc. Thanks

Also, if using snap, read the docs. You need to activate the camera
