bluetooth issues with airpods and magic keyboard

Hi,

I'm using a Magic Keyboard 2, a Magic Trackpad 2 and a Magic Mouse 2 on my MacBook Air M1, but when connecting my AirPods 2 the sound is flickering.


I noticed that this happens when the keyboard and the AirPods are connected. No audio problems with the Magic Mouse and the Trackpad.


As it is very unpleasant, how can correct it?

I have Monterey 12.2.1 (but also with the previous version of Monterey there were issues).


Thank you

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 12.2

This error most likely occurs because too many devices are connected to your MacBook. Because bluetooth devices send out signals, the signal for the AirPods might not be strong enough to deliver the best sound if you have the Magic Keyboard connected. The technical limit for the maximum connected devices is 7, but practically 2 - 3. However, this depends on the devices that you use. Try not to use all the Accessories and just the AirPods. If not, try to reset your Mac's bluetooth settings. If that did not help, contact Apple Support.
