Airpods not working for phone calls

When my Airpods are connected to the iPhone and I make/receive a call, I'm getting no audio, despite the fact that the Airpods are clearly selected as the audio output.


If I switch to iPhone sound, I get the audio through the iPhone earpiece. If I instead end the call, all other audio resumes in the Airpods.


Is this a known problem/limitation of the Airpods? Have I missed something while setting them up?

iPhone 7, iOS 10.0.2

It's the Tile app, open it up, hit settings, turn off bluetooth in the Tile app... AirPods will begin working again normally, immediately.
