How can I turn on the mic on my Apple Watch?

When I receive a call I can't answer on my watch. I can hear them but they can't hear me. The Mic on the watch has a line though it indicating it's off. Pressing it one the watch screen does not turn it on

After last WatchOS update, Siri will activate with the microphone but then nothing happens after I speak. Its as if the microphone is off but the indicator is orange and seems to be working fine. Have tried restarting it, turning Siri on and off, dictation on and off, nothing seems to be working. Microphone is not contaminated or blocked with dirt or debris. Advise?
