Not able to get iPhone Handoff to HomePod to work

I am having trouble getting my iPhone 12 Pro to Handoff to my HomePods - iPhone is up to date (iOS 14.3) and both HomePods are up to date (14.3) It used to work with my old iPhone 11 Pro.


I believe I have everything else set up correctly - AirPlay & Handoff - Transfer to HomePod is turned on.


I have done a hard reset on the iPhone and HomePods.


Airplay does work from the iPhone to the HomePods.


Thanks for any suggestions. It is a neat feature when it is working.

Tried all of that and still will not Handoff to HomePod. This is on my iPhone 12 Pro


Thought I would dig a bit deeper/

I have an iPhone SE (Second Generation) and it works fine.

I also have an iPhone 6 and it works fine as well.


Would welcome any other suggestions. When using the iPhone 12 Pro I am able to use AirPlay with no issues and when I ask SIRI to play any of my PlayLists (via HomePod) she does so.


I am not aware of any other issues with the iPhone 12 Pro - This is my daily iPhone. It does have both the eSim and a Sim Card in it, so I do have both Lines turned on.
