Apple TV 4K with newest iOS has share audio issues when I put in two pairs of AirPods the Apple TV will only connect to one at a time but not both. When I hold the rectangular button down I can add the second pair but the audio levels are always different. When I adjust the levels and go back to the program the levels become different for the two pairs and I have to go back in to readjust them without fail every time. Why does the Apple TV not have an always connect option and why do the sound levels not just automatically match?

Apple TV not showing AirPlay devices on the list It was working more than a year. It looks that with one of recent updates something was broken. I can see only one option 'TV Speakers' Previously it was showing my airplay devices. 'living room' 'Sonos 1' 'Sonos 2' 'Marantz' I can control this from iPhone, however it is limited experience. I can't use apple tv remote to control volume of speaker.

The most likely cause of audio dropout using AirPlay is a problematic network. Have you looked for nearby networks operating on the same channels or other household items that are known to cause interference?
