Thank you for releasing MS Teams (You have Microsoft Teams Version 1.5.00.10453 (64-bit).) for Ubuntu 22.04.
Currently no screen sharing options are available in MS Teams meetings when participating from MS Teams Desktop on Ubuntu 22.04.

Is there a configuration task, or is screen sharing not supported?

    Single window sharing works with:
    Chrome Version 103.0.5060.53 (Official Build) (64-bit)
    Ubuntu 22.04 + Wayland

    Sharing the entire screen does not work, but a sharing a window is good enough for many scenarios.

    I was resolved by going to chrome://flags/#enable-webrtc-pipewire-capturer and changing the value from Default to Enabled.

    then

    Search for the file.conf in /etc/gdm3/ in my case, Ubuntu 22.04, it's custom.conf

       sudo nano /etc/gdm3/custom.conf  
    

    uncomment the line

    #WaylandEnable=false to be WaylandEnable=false

    then reboot

    "uncommenting that line will use the Xorg display manager instead of Wayland "

    Entire screen sharing now working in Chrome + Firefox. No setting changes required.

    Still nothing in app.

    Tested on Arch + Wayland + pipewire
