It's not really push-to-talk where you hold it and release to mute and unmute, but you can press it to unmute then press again to mute yourself.

I liked it but now it isn't turning my microphone off when I join like it says it does. The mute upon joining setting is turned on so I don't understand why it doesn't work.
