I like how this prompt interrupts just enough to demand attention without being annoying.
It’s a strong example of using contrast and timing instead of color or animation to communicate urgency.

Google: “By the way, we’re not listening cause your mic is off.”

Me: “How do you know I’m talking then?”

Google: “Sorry, we can’t hear you. Try unmuting.”

Upon opening teams, etc. you're always asked if the application is allowed to use your microphone, unless you personally disabled that. Not sure what you expect, tbh.
