Title: Some users may see the Teams chat icon is missing when using the new chat and channels experience in Microsoft Teams
User impact: Users may see the Teams chat icon is missing when using the new chat and channels experience in Microsoft Teams.
More info: Specifically, the Chats and Channels app icon may be missing from the pin bar when using the new chat and channels experience on any Microsoft Teams clients.

We're reverting the offending deployment to remediate impact, and we'll aim to provide a resolution timeline once available. While impacted users wait for the fix to be deployed, we recommend users separate Chats from Channels by enabling the "separate" view in Microsoft Teams.
