I'm tracking with everything except Callers being able to unmute. I took screenshots of our setup but it doesn't allow me to share with you. Suffice it to say that this instruction you gave -
- You will then see this pop-up when muting, by clicking "Allow everybody to unmute" attendees have the option to unmute. If you uncheck this, they will not be able to unmute.
- Please let the Callers know they can mute or unmute by pressing *6
does NOT work. This is what I keep saying. I DO click Allow everybody to unmute. I DO NOT uncheck the box. I DO tell everyone that they can unmute themselves by pressing *6 - but for several of them this simply does not work.
Only one other screenshot doesn't match with what I do and that's under Settings. I have Allow Mic checked (allow) and you show it not toggled (not allowed). Is there something I'm missing with that one setting?
Thanks for getting back to me and all the troubleshoots. My co-worker and I ran through your scenario and we were able to replicate issues with users calling in via a phone and using *6 to mute/unmute. This appeared to happen after "Mute Everyone" was enabled. We have reported this internally. A few things you could do:
- As phone callers to use GoTo app to join a meeting, they will then have the option to mute/unmute with the microphone
- Do not click 'mute everyone' when the meeting starts and ask Callers who are not on the software to mute themselves with their phone directly or by pressing *6 to mute/unmute (I realize this isn't ideal)
- Report the issue as it happens in the meeting by clicking the three dots and Report an issue, please see this post
I do apologize for the issues you have had and really appreciate your patience and time taken to report the issue here. I will keep you and the thread updated on the status of this.

Hi Kate,
I appreciate your patience with me as well. I did report this issue as it happened, twice now. I wondered if allowing each caller to mute themselves would work - so we'll try it. Quick question: does *6 work as a toggle? ie Press once to mute, press again to unmute?

Hi GBNgal
Thanks for your understanding.
Callers should be able to use *6 to mute and then *6 to unmute. Incidentally, when I hosted a test meeting and called in to test, I was able mute and unmute using *6, it wasn't until I enabled 'Mute Everyone" that it appeared to become stuck. This is not expected behavior.
