Enable & Troubleshoot Speaker Recognition on Microsoft Teams Rooms (Android): Policies, Enrollment, Logs
The script walks through enabling speaker attribution (voice recognition) on Microsoft Teams Rooms on Android, outlining requirements such as a Teams Room Pro license, enabling transcription in meeting policy, and ensuring users enroll their voice in the Teams app. It explains that speaker recognition works only for scheduled meetings where users are invited (not ad hoc/Meet Now), and that external/guest users won’t be identified cross-tenant. The presenter demonstrates enabling voice recognition via the device settings in the Pro Management Portal (recommended over older PowerShell meeting policy settings), scheduling a meeting with automatic transcription, and confirming names appear in the transcript while unenrolled users show as Speaker X. It then covers troubleshooting by collecting and analyzing room logs, correlating logs with transcripts/VTT files, checking for transcription start behavior, app version mismatches, and verifying Exchange Online scheduling dependencies.
