Recording the last 30 seconds of gameplay in the gamebar doesn't automatically enable to microphone?

I have all the settings that I can see enabled within the gamebar and windows dvr capture settings to allow the microphone to be on by default, yet for some reason if I want the last 30 seconds captured to contain my voice, I have to open up the gamebar
and unmute myself every time after I record a clip or tab in or out of the game. How can I keep my microphone enabled no matter what?
