Hi, marycmcf!
Thanks for your contribution!!
I couldn't reproduce the described behavior in:
Mac OS X 10.14
Firefox 74.0
Firefox 75.0b11
Firefox Nightly 76.0a1 (2020-04-01)
Could you try to run this on another site that requires a microphone? Just to make sure it is not a problem from the site.

Just tried this myself; I set up an account on mangolanguages, and tried out one of the lessons. We are able to record from the mic just fine, although the site records for such a short duration (less than a second) that it makes it very difficult to use. Chrome behaves this way also. I suspect that this is just a site problem, and it does not appear to be a webcompat problem.
