Hey all, I'm having this issue ever since I've upgraded to Windows 11. Every time I end a call from Teams/3cx, my audio device will always, after every call, get removed as the default audio device. This, even though it's literally the only audio device to begin with. So every time I end a call, I have to go to the system settings and put it back because I literally have no audio from my computer otherwise. I will also point out that it's a bluetooth headset. It doesn't happen with the USB headsets that we have, only my bluetooth one. The weird part is that the headset stays connected, it just gets removed as the output device every time.

I am on the Dev channel for updates, but the issue has been there since moving to Windows 11.
Thanks

As pictured, the headset is there, but it has removed it as the output device.

This happens to me on Windows 11 22H2 stable as well. We use Teams for meetings at work extensively, and I have it set to use my Google Pixel Buds Pro - and every time I disconnect the call, even with the Buds still in my ears, Windows go back to having my SteelSeries headset as the default, and on the next call I then have to connect to my Buds Pro again.

If there is a fix, I'm right there with you on wanting it!
