        @domubpkm both. There is a user of recorder app with Xiomi Mi A2, who said that the app stops working after a phone call.

          @luksus , on FP3 (OTA-23), I confirm that microphone stop working in recorder app after a phone call.
          I also succeed to restore microphone by doing:

          • recorder app is open, no recording in progress
          • open the phone app and make a call
          • during the call, launch a recording in the recorder app: the mic works again
          • close the call and close the phone app, the mic still works in the recorder app

            That's right. For what I tested and noticed, on the Volla, there is indeed a relationship between phone calls and the microphone. An outgoing call breaks the recorder's microphone once the call is hung up.
            When the microphone is broken, all you have to do is dial a telephone number, let it ring without the call being taken by the recipient for the recorder to work. Ending a call permanently mutes the microphone. Only a reboot or restart of the phone reactivates the microphone. App permissions always remain enabled for the microphone even if it is not working. Disabling and re-enabling a microphone access permission does not change anything once the microphone is broken by a call.
            In fact, the broken microphone is broken for all applications that use it.

                @dosolly Right, so it seems to be a general issue then...

                There are also a few more comments going in that way here:

                  I wonder if it's only halium 9 and 10 specific..

                  Nobody has this issue on older phones (nexus 5, nexus 4, bq...) ?

                    There is a nice workaround script to test here which reactivates the microphone.

                      @domubpkm I confirm that the fix did work for me as well (Volla Phone), even if the whole process was quite hard to understand and to apply for a newbee like me... lol

                      Thanks to @niaproxy for the script!
                      Hope that it will be merged by UBports in a future OTA update.

                        @stanwood I don't think this gets merged as it's just a nice workaround I think

                        And still it would be necessary that the problem be put in red as a bug, which is not the case at this moment !
