PowerBeatsPro right side headphone is getting drained

Hi Apple Team,

I never got any issue with my beatsPro until the last iPhone upgrade(afaik). For a couple of months, I am facing this weird problem where my right side headphone battery is totally drained out in spite of a fully charged case. Initially, I thought maybe I am not keeping the right headphone properly causing them not to be charged.

I troubleshoot below

I make sure after my workout they are cleaned and placed properly in the case as I notice most of the time charging sign is missing.
I make sure from the iPhone, that they are getting charged (UI interface pops up when you open the case).
I also disconnected my beats from the phone thinking battery might be drained due to continuous sync.

This makes me believe that something is really bad at the firmware level. It is frustrating every day and has to spend around 15-20 min before a workout to make sure they get charged.

We buy an apple product for the trust, quality, and peace of mind. Please help me out here.

Hi MoonJ

I already did all the required troubleshooting a million times.

This is something very specific to the right side headphone.

I have seen right-side headphone doesn't charge when the case is closed and get drained.
