Expected Behavior
MS Teams screen share should work between two Ubuntu users.
Actual Behavior
I have a colleague that also uses Ferdium on Ubuntu. When one of us is sharing their screen on MS Teams, the other one cannot see it. It does not matter if we have more people in the call or not, the issue remains the same.
If the one that is sharing their screen, share it on MS Teams in a browser instead, it works fine, even when the other (the one that is receiving the screen share) is using Ferdium.
Steps to reproduce
- Two Ubuntu Users join the same call on MS Teams;
- User 1 share their screen;
- User 2 cannot see the shared screen.

Additional information
We are not totally sure when this stopped working, although it seems that working normally a few weeks ago, maybe on version 6.x.x?
imho it does not matter who is on the other side. just sharing on ubuntu/snap/wayland is not working. it won't offer desktop to share unlike in browser.
version: 6.7.7
I'm experiencing the same problem. Everyone who's on Linux for some reason cannot see my screen, while people on Mac's and Windows' can 🤯 I did also notice that it happens in a call where multiple people are while in a call where it's only 2 people it is usually ok
Yep, in a 1:1 the sharing is visible, but in a call with multiple users the share screen keeps gray.
