Mic not working on xbox one

[Megatf]

Hey all, the mic has been really random on working with the latest firmware update.  In fact i cant gt it to work at all right now...  It used to work perfectly...

I used to be able to unplug and plug the xim4 to get the headset to work.  I sometimes and very rarely can get the mic to work if i hard shutdown and bring the xbox one up via the controller. 

As of right now no combination ive tried seems to get the mic to work.  When the controller is not plugged into the xim it works fine. 

Im using a standard xbox one usb headset.  Any help?

Using latest firmware and software

UPDATE:  got it to work just now by turning on my xbox and then turning on my controller AFTER i was signed into xbox live

Unplugging the headset and plugging it back in doesnt work either

Using xbox one elite amd elite controller

Does the same thing happen when a headset is plugged directly into the controller as opposed to the headset adapter?

Its not a headset adapter, its the stock usb headset that came with any xbox one you buy.  I dont own any 3.5mm headsets but i am afraid of buying one because i dunno if itll work

Have you connected your controller to your console with the headset adapter attached and ran the controller firmware update in the Xbox settings?
