Report back if this does the trick..

Close all apps and then restart your iPhone:


  • How to Close All Apps:

An app is accessing your audio. So, close all apps. Hold you finger down as you swipe up from the bottom-left corner of your screen. Then, close all of these open apps, by sweeping up quickly for all apps.
