Airpods volume issues after IOS 14.8

After updating to IOS 14.8, my Airpods have stopped playing any sound at a decent volume. I have to turn the sound bar 75% of the way up to hear the music at a decent volume, where before 75% was rather loud and borderline painful. Is there any way to fix this? I've cleaned them, reset them, restarted my phone, and messed with all the volume settings trying to fix it. They very occasionally will play the music at the normal volume it used to but almost immediately cuts back to low volume. Any suggestions or solutions that anyone has found?
