This is the scenario:
I walk into my sisters guest room for the weekend with my AirPod Pros in my ears.
I turn on her Apple TV that she has hooked up to the guest TV.
I navigate up to the Control Center > Audio to (hopefully) select my AirPods, but no; They are not showing / available as a selection.
Why not?
How can I use my AirPods on an Apple TV that is not my own?
Thanks.

No I didn't; as this will result in "un-pairing" my AirPods from my own personal AppleTV, and from all my other personal Apple devices.
The only solution I found was to add myself (Apple ID) to my sister's Apple TV as a 'user'. Then my AirPods become available as an audio source under the Audio Menu.
Sort of a pain, but I can just delete myself from her AppleTV when I leave.
Thanks for suggestions though.
