We appear to have recently been updated to MS Teams 24137.2216.2931.2440 on our Citrix 2022 VDAs. We've noticed Teams now minimizes itself after the app loads, previously it did not do this. Has anyone else noticed this?

Yep, server 2019, we just updated and see the same. Launches and then once loaded minimizes

I have seen this on Windows 10 as well after going to 24152.408.2949.8308. I haven't dug into the.. Why, yet. My advice would be to compare the JSON files before and after, the bust out peocmon if needed. But that's an extreme approach. Like I said haven't dug into why or if it's a once-off.

Any luck figuring out how to replicate this? I've updated Teams to the latest and it still won't start minimized, as we desire.

I am testing Teams2 and it starts then minimizes every time. Server 2019, Teams 24165.1414.2987.41, FSL 2.9.8884.27471. I had to manually install Teams Meeting Add-in to get teams meeting in Outlook. Presence is not showing up in Outlook. Any suggestions?

Check the office (outlook section) there is a whole troubleshooting guide on why. Also check the AppData\Local\Packages\MSTeams_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Microsoft\MSTeams\app_settings.json file to see if "open app in background is true" If it's false, toggle it on and off Ensure this is followed for 2019 https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/new-teams-vdi-requirements-deploy#outlook-presence-integration-wi[…]ew-teams-in-windows-server-2019 Outlook checks https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/troubleshoot/meetings/resolve-teams-meeting-add-in-issues

Thanks for the reply. I found the source of the presence add-in issue. It was related to an inherited GPO. The open application in the background box is unchecked in the GUI. It seems to have fixed itself with the latest update.
