Yaay! i found a workaround! It seems that the mic isn't correctly
detected. What i did was:

sudo echo "options snd-hda-intel model=dell-headset-multi" >
/etc/modprobe.d/snd-hda-intel.conf

and the mic started to work after a reboot. if it didn't work for you, you may try replacing " dell-headset-multi " with 
" headset-mic " , " alc271-dmic " or any other mic model from  https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/sound/alsa/HD-Audio-Models.txt  that is assigned to your audio card.

  [Aspire V5-571G, Realtek ALC271X] 4-pin jack mic doesn't work

Status in alsa-driver package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  I have an Acer Aspire V5-571G with a Realtek soundcard in which there is one 4-pin jack (for mic and headset). When i plug a 4-pin headset only output is detected while input remains the same (it still using the integrated computer mic).
  Right now im using Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS but anyway it neither work in previous versions.
  EDIT: My soundcard is Realtek but in ubuntu is called HDA Intel PCH.
