Title: Some users may experience intermittent audio and video degradation when using Microsoft Teams through VDI 2.0
User impact: Users may have experienced intermittent audio and video degradation when using Microsoft Teams through VDI 2.0
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.
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.
Scope of impact: Users who were using Microsoft Teams VDI 2.0 in a Citrix VDI environment may have been impacted.
Start time: Thursday, October 1, 2026, at 12:00 PM UTC
End time: Tuesday, October 6, 2026, at 11:10 PM UTC
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.

User impact: Users may experience intermittent audio and video degradation when using Microsoft Teams through VDI 2.0
More info: Users also intermittently may be unable leverage certain feature optimization provided by VDI 2.0
As a workaround, users can restart Teams to resolve the issue.
Current status: 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.
