Often times when I'm using AirPods they will go silent as I think they have automatically switched & connected with either the iPhone or the Apple Watch. It doesn't matter if I first start using the AirPods with the iPhone or the Apple Watch, after awhile it'll go silent (not work) and I think automatically connected to the other device. Is there a way to bluetooth "lock" the AirPods to one particular device? Are you experiencing this bug? Maybe I'm completely wrong and it's due to another issue.
