Mic not working for Skype for Business

It seems that Skype for Business does not request access for the microphone, just for the camera. Does anyone have a solution for this? Tried reinstalling, but once again, only asks for permission for the camera.

This appears to be a known feature of 16.28.175. Microsoft recommends some twisted operations on the TCC.db :(


The better solution appears to be to download 16.28.120 from https://download.microsoft.com/download/D/0/5/D055DA17-C7B8-4257-89A1-78E7BBE3833F/SkypeForBusinessInstaller-16.28.0.120.pkg. Just install over the newer version. As soon as you make a phone call SfB will properly ask for the permissions to access the microphone and life is good again.
