AirPods Randomly stop playing
When I connect my AirPods to my MacBook Air and I start playing music, everything seems fine at first but a few minutes later the music just stops coming out of both AirPods while the MacBook still says the music should be playing. This is interesting as the music is not paused on Spotify itself. This also happens with Youtube, iTunes, etc. When I then disconnect and reconnect the AirPods, I can usually listen for a while before it happens again. Sometimes the AirPods continue playing after approximately 20 seconds of silence, or they don't continue at all. I suspect the Bluetooth to be the issue as it sometimes seems to 'reconnect' and continue to play. Also, the sound seems to 'stutter' sometimes... Any other ideas?
