MIC not working with siri/voice to text after ios9.3.1 update

After I updated to 9.3.1 my hey siri stopped working in that it no longer hears my commands and voice to text will not pick up any sound either. I know there is no problems with my microphone working because I can still be heard on phone calls and when I disable siri am still able to use the basic voice controls that were pre-siri. I have already tried disabling siri and reactivating it (and reactivating the hey siri as well, although I cant set it up since it cant hear me), changing her accent, switching the voice from male to female, restarting the phone, updating restrictions. And frankly I'm at a loss here, I cant think of any other possible fixes. Has anyone else run into this and if so were there any resolutions? Please help!

iPhone 6, iOS 9.3.1

I too, am having problems with the exact same issues, but when I use earphones or headphones, Siri and everything else works! I can call without earphones but when using Siri or dictation it just doesn’t work! Need a solution!!
