I’ve been experiencing AirPods issues. Stuttering can crackling sound, the range has been reduced considerably, connection issues, sometimes it gets stuck with one device and won’t move to another, etc. I used to experience mild cracking sound on Beta 1, and super stable on iPad OS 14, but with 15 Beta 2 this has been horrible.
Is there anything going on with Bluetooth on B2? Any way I can reset something so I can make it work better?

Have the same sort of issues where they just start playing then simply stop and revert to my MacBook. no matter what I do they won't go back.

Tried removing and re-pairing but same issue occurs, mine are the AirPods Pro

Just happened to mine. Weird that it works fine for days.
 
Do you happen to have an(y) AirTag(s)?

When carrying around the AirTag I was trialing for a short time I noticed more interference and signal drops with my AirPods (Pro, not that it really matters).
 
I've started sometimes getting this in CarPlay, too. It's kinda dangerous 🤷‍♂️ I also have been experiencing random like quarter second skips across every device whether I'm airplaying from my phone, using airpods, or in the car.
 
I've been experiencing this, reported it, and Apple has reached out a couple of times. I have installed some Bluetooth Logging profiles as I'm having other weird bluetooth issues too.

If you can, notate exactly when it happens or starts to occur like: 10:03:45 AM PST July 9, 2021. That way they can dig through the logs to find out what's happening.

Of course, I have the profile and its not replicating now. But we shall see.
 
I experienced this somewhat...doesn't seem as bad as some of you though. Songs definitely have a "blip" while playing like the connection drops out for a split second. Annoying.

These are brand new AirPod Pros I got last week as a warrantly replacement for the crackling/bad driver issue found on original version.

Mine are fairly new as well. I got them about 1.5 months ago.
