Hi yatciri,


You may need to manually switch to your AirPods in the audio card in Control Center. Try the steps outlined here to see if you can get the music to play through your AirPods.


Open Control Center on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
Touch and hold the audio card in the upper-right corner of Control Center to control audio.
Tap , then choose your AirPods from the list.
Control Center screen on your iPhone 

Switch your AirPods to another device - Apple Support


If this works, and you want your music to automatically switch to your AirPods when you connect, enable automatic switching with the instructions at the bottom of that article.


Kindest Regards.
