Music App Opens When Removing Airpods

About 50% of the time, when I'm finished using my Airpods on my Macbook Pro and I put them back into the case, the music app launches. How do I stop this?

OS: MacOS 11.2.3 (Big Sur)

Airpods Pro

MacBook Pro (2020 and later)

HomePods Stuck Configuring after 16.2 and move to new HomeKit framework Yesterday I updated all my devices to the latest IOS and macOS. They all updated (iPads, Apple TVs, iPhones, Macs, HomePods - minis, and OG). I then migrated to the new HomeKit framework. It seemed to work, but all my HomePods said "Configuring" for hours in the Home app. I left it overnight, only to find them in the same state this morning. This morning, I tried powering them off and on, and it didn't fix anything. I removed all the HomePods from my home and my iCloud account. I then reset and re-setup both an OG HomePod and a mini. Both remained stuck in "configuring status" for over an hour. Following some internet advice, I re-removed both from my iCloud and reset them. To reduce the problem's complexity, I unplugged all the HomePods except one mini. I restored it using my Mac to a clean new copy of 16.2. I set that one up. Now over an hour later, it's still "configuring." What next? I guess I could remove and reset all my Apple TVs too? I don't want to delete the home as that would be a huge undertaking on a WAG to re-establish. I'll do it if it's the only option, but I'm hoping another option exists. Is anyone else having a similar issue? Any ideas? I'll probably call Apple Support this evening when I have more time, but I suspect they will tell me to delete the home, which will be a bear.

airpods pro case showing 0% when I updated my AirPods to 5B58 and everything I use it it shows 0% for the case when I put it back in it shows it’s real charged percentage. It doesn’t effect the use but it is really irritating because I have to put my AirPods in my case each time to see it’s percentage of the case
