    Will the gray screen part over the audio controls be addressed? This is a long standing issue that prevents using audio.

    It's broken on the Raspberry Pi .deb version. I can view the screens but have no control. Please look into it asap.

    In these current times, people are relying heavily on your software. To be pushing updates out without thoroughly testing (again) is not ideal.

    I had the same issue as. Luckily, my system isn't headless, so I could complete the account setup graphically.

    Also, the headless command 'teamviewer setup' doesn't seem compatible with 2FA, which I always use.

    Instead of asking for the 2FA code it stalls, and after a while claims

    when we connect to version 15.16.8 in remote control, the connection freezes after a few seconds. Teamviewer generates a crash file. We went back to version 15.15.5 which does not have this problem.
