iPhone external mic (mini jack) with dock output

I saw a similar thread regarding audio route behavior when an external
mic is connected to the mini jack. However, I did not see an answer to
my specific question, as described below...

I am trying to use an external mic connected to the mini jack while
outputting audio through the dock line-out. With the iPod Touch 2G, this
works fine, even if headphones and a mic are connected to the mini jack
(i.e., a headset). Audio still plays out through the dock.

However, with the iPhone 2G (original), whenever I connect an external
mic to the mini jack, the audio is no longer output though the dock
(even if audio was output before the mic was connected). When I
disconnect the mic, the audio once again plays through the dock.

My questions are:

1) Is there a way to force audio out the dock line-out (regardless of
whether a mic or headset is connected to the mini jack)?

2) Why is the behavior different on the Touch and the iPhone?

Thanks,

Zach
