Sound Volume in Menu Bar

I just purchased a new MacBook Pro. The BlueTooth icon has replaced the sound volume . I can not change the volume. My keyboard connects, but I can't sync my AirPods. What can I do to get this functioning properly?


Thanks


Carl

Hello Carl Sutherland,


Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!


Do you currently have any bluetooth devices connected to your Mac? You can check that using the steps in here: Turn Bluetooth on or off on Mac - Apple Support


Additionally, can you check your sound output settings and see if it's currently set to output to your Macs speakers? Change the sound output settings on Mac - Apple Support


Checking these things can help narrow down what's happening and what options you have.


Cheers!
