Android 4.4 microphone issue

I have an AIR application using the microphone for Android/iOS. Due to the changes in iOS 7, I have code to do a basic check when setting up the microphone that it is non-null, and the microphone captures at least one audio sample.

I have a user with a Nexus 5 running Android 4.4 reporting that the microphone check fails (I am not sure whether when getting a microphone or not getting a sample). The same APK works on prior versions of Android, and the same source works when built for iOS 7.

I do not currently have an Android 4.4 device to test on; can anyone tell me whether the microphone policy has changed in Android 4.4 (like it did for iOS 7)? Or is anyone experiencing a similar problem with the Nexus 5 or Android 4.4? 

If it matters, the application is currently packaged with AIR 3.7. I will try to test with the latest AIR.

This also occurs in AIR 3.9. It appears either the application cannot get the microphone, or no audio is captured by the microphone.
