More info
Users also intermittently may have been unable to leverage certain feature optimizations provided by VDI 2.0
As a workaround, users could have restarted Microsoft Teams to resolve the issue.
Scope of impact
Users who were using Microsoft Teams VDI 2.0 in a Citrix VDI environment may have been impacted.
Root cause
A recent configuration update to the VDI Bridge component responsible for VDI optimization introduced a regression, resulting in impact.
Next steps:
- We're reviewing the impacting configuration update to understand why impact to audio and video quality wasn't identified during our pre-deployment testing processes. This investigation will help us to prevent similar issues from occurring in the future.
This is the final update for the event.
Final status
We've monitored service health telemetry for an extended period and confirmed that the impact has been remediated on build version 26246.1604.5133.838. We recommend any user still facing impact to download this specific build version to apply the remediation.

We're seeing continued success from our mitigation of moving users to a specific build version that doesn't contain the regression, and more monitoring time is needed to ensure this provides a stable resolution for users.

We’ve implemented an interim mitigation to provide immediate relief and have observed initial signs of improvement. However, we’re continuing to monitor its effectiveness while progressing with validation of a longer-term fix before proceeding with deployment.

We’re proceeding to validate the fix before deploying it to the affected infrastructure. Once available, we’ll provide a deployment timeline.

We’ve identified that a recent configuration update to the VDI Bridge component responsible for VDI optimisation introduced a regression, resulting in impact. We’ve developed a fix and are currently validating it before deploying it to the affected infrastructure. We expect to provide a deployment timeline by our next scheduled update.

As we progress with our root cause analysis and isolate the source for this event, we've isolated an offending code regression that is believed to be producing the problems. We've internally validated a solution that is expected to remediate the impact. We're deploying our solution, and we'll provide an updated timeline for its deployment once it has become available.
