Connecting Two Sets of AirPods to AppleTV 4K

I thought this was going to be a feature in the latest TVOS but if it is I can’t find it. Connecting a second set of AirPods (I’m actually using AirPods Pro) disconnects the first set of AirPods. Is this a feature or not? i could sure use it because my wife hates the loud bass in the pair of HomePods we have in Home Theater mode and there is no equalizer on the AppleTV to the HomePods.

Apple TV HD, tvOS 14
