Built-in microphone not working after iOS 15.4.1 upgrade

I'm not able to use the built-in microphone on my iPhone 7 Plus after upgrading to iOS 15.4.1. Even dictation or voice memos just give two beeps as if the microphone started and then immediately stopped.


I've noticed if I'm on a bluetooth headset, the speech input works fine.

Thanks, but I also know how to use Google. This is a bug introduced in iOS 15.4.1 with no workaround:


After the iOS 15.4.1 update I can longer … - Apple Community

Microphone stops working regularly - Apple Community


Similar bugs reported in earlier version of iOS 15:


Problems after update to ios 15 - Apple Community

iOS 15 update lost microphone use - Apple Community


Would be nice if Apple could prioritize fixing this. Or perhaps re-allow users to perform software downgrades.
