S1 Passive owners or Tech Gurus

Hi,

Im hoping someone who onwn a S1 Passive headset or someone with good technical knowledge can help me on this issue I am having.

Basically my 1st S1 headset from Sennheiser did not work with my iPhone at all, audio worked fine but there was no microphone input. This was with all devices not just the iPhone. Sennheiser confirmed that this was an issue with iPhones however it seems my headset was faulty either way, No problems though because Sennheiser Aus sent me out a replacement to fix the iPhone issue and the faulty headset.

However, the new headset which appears to be a new batch (1085 vs 1065) is able to receive microphone input, but not from the S1 passive. It is utilising the Iphone/Computers inbuilt microphone.

So, can anyone please help me on this very specific issue. Why is the S1 Passive microphone boom not working with non aircraft systems? Is this a specific issue with S1's, or 3.5mm hardwired aviation headsets?
