Facetime app - microphone not working - tried reset & erase

I have an iPhone 8 with newest iOS.

Everything works fine - except the microphone in Facetime.

If I call someone they can't hear me. Or... they can hear me but it's so weak they can't hear what I'm saying.

Microphone works fine when doing regular calls. Voice memo has same issue as Facetime.

Volume is set high - and I've tried every suggested solution around the internet to fix this. I even reset & erased the iPhone to start from scratch. But the problem persists.

As regular calls work flawless I find it hard to believe that it's a microphone problem.

I hope someone can help.

Regards

Kenneth
