AirPods Pro no Stereo Sound on Mac

My AirPods Pro regularly only work with Mono sound. Sound is coming from both Buds, but only in Mono. Audio Settings on the AirPods don't show a balance slider like on other Stereo Headphones or like when the Stereo on the AirPods does work. Ive been noticing this mainly when playing over GeForce Now, although they have worked with that before so that can't be the issue.


Any Suggestions on what to do?

MacBook Pro (2020 and later)
