MacOS notifications keep killing music from my iPhone to my Beats Solo Pros?

[alexjholland]

Autoswitch on Airpods and Beats headphones can be AWFUL.

I'm trying out spatial audio with my Beats Solo Pro headphones on my iPhone 12 Pro...

...and each time I get a notification on my Mac it instantly breaks the connection and kills the music to send a pointless, unwanted notification bell to my headphones.

What a shameful UX fail!

Obviously, I can switch 'Do Not Disturb' on my Mac.

But this is - clearly - not how it's meant to work.

Any tips, other than turning off their badly-designed auto switch feature?

This behavior isn’t normal. Make sure all your devices and the Mac are upgraded to the latest software. I’d consider toggling off and back on auto-switching. Then, try to Forget the Device and repair them.
