Dingus #CIO is at it again.
He doesn't want to manage his speaker settings in Windows. It bothers him that sometimes the speakers switch from his laptop to the Dell monitors when connecting to the dock so he demands I design a solution and deploy it to everyone in the environment.
I did and it works. It's a group policy that disables the hardware installation by its GUID. But by doing that it also disables the speakers in the Teams rooms.
IT Director tries to use one of the Teams room and gets no sound.
Why did we do this she asks? IDK says CIO but we'll find out.
So now I'm to design something else that gets the same results but without disabling Teams rooms speakers.
I've got way more important things to do for the entire org but I'll go ahead and spend all the time necessary on this douchecanoe's whimsical asshatery. It's a great roi.
Anyone have the same type of #ithorrorstories or work for the same #itleadership ?
