Known Issues
Cannot play a department voicemail
When you are added to a department line to monitor voicemail, you will not be able to play any messages that were received prior to you being added to the account. Unfortunately, you'll get an error that says you have insufficient network bandwidth to play the message. The real problem is you don't have access to the voicemail. ITS is working with Avaya to see if they can correct this misleading error message.
Any voicemails received to the department line after you have been granted access should play correctly.
Zoom Conflict
When on a Zoom call and you receive an Avaya call, Zoom may cause the speaker volume to go down and not come back up. To fix this, you have to leave the Zoom meeting and come back in.
To prevent this from happening, in your Zoom settings on your computer, make sure you uncheck Sync buttons on headset under the Audio settings.
