Keyboard Shortcut on Function Key

In Microsoft Teams there is a keyboard shortcut Command+Shift+M to mute the microphone. As I use an Apple extended bluetooth keyboard I want to be able to assign this to a single function key keypress on F19. There is no "Menu" option for the muting in Teams, so I can't put that into the remapping, so I was wondering how I can get a keyboard shortcut defined against a function key?

Microsoft is listening to keyboard input even while using other apps Hello Microsoft Teams has many keyboard shortcuts and they seem to often be interfering even when the app is not focused. For example Ctrl+Shift+S can call everyone on your team. It's more then just me. See here https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103-public/suggestions/33965626-disable-or-modify-keyboard-shortcuts MacOS has a permission under "Security & Privacy" for "Input Monitoring" but Microsoft Teams is not listed there. How is Teams aloud to monitor global key input without asking for the permission?

What does the F5 key (mic icon) do on a 2022 MBA? Pressing it brings up a horizontal line over a circle with a line through it (see attached). I guessed it was a mic mute button, which would be AMAZING, but it seems to have no effect when testing using the built in mic and the voice memo app. The help page How to use the function keys on your Mac - Apple Support does not say.

Is there a way to disable to Dictation function on F5 key on new Touch ID keyboard I just switched from an older white wireless Apple keyboard to a new black Touch ID one. The old one has no Apple function icon above the "F5" on the key and thus was available to use in apps like Adobe Creative Cloud. I could use F5 in other applications while still using F8 for pause and play, and F10-11-12 for volume control. The new keyboard has a microphone icon for dictation and cannot be used in other applications as a function key. I know I can disable ALL of the F keys in System Preferences, but I like using some of them as previously stated, for volume, etc. Is there any way to customize the F5 key so it behaves like the same key on the previous keyboards? Thanks!
