Three Things:

A. Start Here: If "Hey Siri" isn't Working on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support

B. Try Reenabling Siri:

1. Go to: Settings
2. Tap: Siri & Search
3. Tap: Listen for 'Hey Siri' (so that it is disabled)
4. Tap: turn Siri back on
5. Tap: Continue

C. Report this to Apple:

Do your Part: Report this to Apple. Apple won't get back to you directly, but the more feedback they receive on this, the more they will know what is going on, and what fixes to include in updates to come. Being there is no feedback area for Siri, use the feedback area for the device: iPhone

1. Go Here: Feedback - iPhone - Apple
2. Select: "Other" for the "Feedback Type"
3. Comment: on when you came across this issue, and how you have troubleshot it thus far.
4. Proceed from there as necessary

Using this with and External Mic?

If you are using an external microphone with these, then the issue may be on that hardware, rather than the iPhone.

Contact Apple Support:

If Siri isn’t working, then contact Apple Support. Something is misconfigured software-wise, if the internal microphone is working with Siri. They’ll run you through the fix.

Apple Contact Us Info:

--- Contact Us - Choose Locations

--- Proceed from there as Necessary

NOTE: Due to the Coronavirus Pandemic, calls are taking a bit longer to get through. And, that makes sense, because many are at home working out-of-the-house or are taking classes over-the-web, this they have more time on their hands to contact Apple Support. So, it might take a bit to get through to Apple Support. But, just stay on the line, and someone will be with you :)
