[Elecraft] K3: Problem with CM500 plugged into front panel through AD1K
I discovered the same thing. I still use the front connector, but now I have a stereo to mono adapter in the mic line plugged into the AD-1K. Works perfect.

[Elecraft] K3: Problem with CM500 plugged into front panel through AD1K
Thanks to all that replied to my query. Don, W3FPR, hit the nail on the head that the adapter has a mono jack and the CM500 has a stereo plug. The tip and the ring of the CM500 mic plug are connected together, so when plugged into a mono jack, the audio is shorted to the shell. For now, at least, I will keep the CM500 plugged into the rear phone and mic jack on the K3. I appreciate the expertise on this reflector.
