Make sure the mic's turned on. If it is check the settings in the adjust devices on your PS4.

Is it possible that you didn't have the headphone jack in completely? Do you have a cover on your controller that doesn't allow the headphone jack to seat completely? Is your controller faulty? Is the mute function on the headset turned on?

I. MUTE SWITCH ON/OFF.
II. VOLUME CONTROL WHEEL ADJUSTED.
III. PS4 PARTY CHAT IS SET TO AUDIO/PARTY MIX.

Did you slide the slider button to activate the mic part? It's right there next to the volume wheel. It can be easy to miss so you might need to look for it.

Maybe your controller is bad?

Make sure the jack of the headphones is pushed in all the way into the ps4 controller untill you see no silver and make a solid connection. It won't break push it in firmly . I made this mistake with my ear bud that came with ps4 for two weeks untill I talked to someone about it. Other than that confirm mic is not muted. While wearin headset the mic switch in the upward position mutes mic.

Make sure your settings on ps4 are set to voice chat.

i had the same problem at the beginning. Volume wheel was too low and switch was off. the letters and symbols on the device are not to friendly, to small to see.

Check to see if the mic button is on or off if that does not work look on the device and see what the problem is there

The problem isn't the mic. You have to adjust the settings before using them. If it's a party chat you need to check party setigs and make sure it's on 'prioritize party'.

Check your audio settings in the PS4. I had the same problem at first.
