Yes bias is on same as the head set.  
Could it be a cable issue?

  Don,



Did you turn on the bias?  That mic needs it (as do all microphones with 

an electret element).  See the main menu MIC SEL - tap button 2 to 

toggle the bias.

need the mic line in setting at 45. The original head set needed low 
gain and the line in set to 10 for full ALC action.
