iPhone not ringing on MacBook Pro when screen mirroring to Apple TV

I have a new MacBook Pro with an M2 Pro chip.

I also have an iPhone 14 Pro. Both are updated to iOS 17.2. When I connect my MacBook to my Apple TV to extend my desktop via screen mirror, I can no longer answer phone calls or FaceTime calls on my MacBook. When I disconnect the screen mirrored desktop (Apple TV) then my iPhone and FaceTime rings again on my MacBook.

And also, I have to very often manually choose my MacBook as the sound output device when screen mirroring to my Apple TV (although I don't think the two problems are related). Any help is appreciated because it doesn't feel like this should be happening. All I'm doing is extending my desktop to the Apple TV.
