Airpods fail with phone calls after second BT connection, like a car
I have an iPhone 7 (iOS 10.2) and two different sets of Airpods (Mine & wife's) that I have tested this on.
Long story short, when my vehicle connects to my iPhone and I need to have a private conversation in the car during a call, I tried to use my Airpods. (previously would use earpods)
I can see they are connected when looking at audio options - Car, Airpods, Speaker, and Phone. When selecting Airpods, I cannot hear the caller and they cannot hear me either. I can toggle between audio sources and all is OK, just not Airpods.
After this failure occurs, the Airpods will never again work for phone calls (but music still works, which is odd). Also, Siri cannot hear me either.
The only work around I have found is rebooting the phone. If I need a private conversation in the car, I have to disable my vehicles BT, use Airpods and call the person back. If both devices ever connect at the same time, the error returns consistently and constantly until rebooting. - No audio for phone calls
This failure is repeatable every time. I have tested with two different sets of Airpods to confirm that I did not have a defective set of Airpods. Very frustrating.
