The phone and video icon will bring up the audio and video connection settings. This is where you can change and correct any audio settings, such as microphone, speakers, as well as webcam video. The top dropdown in the audio connection section will allow you to choose how you would like to hear the audio of the call. Selecting "I Will Call In" will display the meeting phone number, access code, and attendee ID you will use when calling in for audio.
