Airpods Max only playing in one ear"

How do I fix my AirPods Max? They are only playing out of one ear.

Resetting my AirPods Max by holding down both the crown and noise suppression buttons and then allowing them to reconnect fixes the problem temporarily, but it recurs several times per day, and seems to be related to certain motions of my head when wearing the AirPods. I don't recall this speaker cutout happening before spatial audio was supported. Turning off Bluetooth on my iPhone does not fix the problem -- it still occurs with my M1 MacBook Pro. It is always the right speaker that cuts out, and the balance setting still shows as in the middle.
