Help Headphones only work if I press and hold the answer-call button

Hi, the title pretty much sums it up.
I bought a Samsung Galaxy SIII and the headphones that came with it were working fine until some point that after I took them out and put them in again, they wouldn't work. I found out later that if hold the answer call button they work just fine. Later I tried with other headphones from a old HTC. Same story, they worked fine for like a day and next day wouldn't work properly unless I pressed and hold the answer-call button in the phones near the micro. Both phones work normally if I connect them to the PC.

Any idea?

PS: Sorry if this is a repost, I searched and didn't find any solution regarding this.
 
Hi - just so I'm clear in my head - when you say you're holding down the answer call button - is this on the headphones or on the phone?
