HomePod issues
Has anyone else had issues with their HomePods since the 16.6 update? I am unable to control the volume as a pair since updating. It’s as though they aren’t communicating with each other.

Hey there G-Force__,
We understand you're having trouble with your HomePods in stereo pair. We'd be happy to help you address this.
Check to see if resetting both HomePods helps: If HomePod or HomePod mini isn't responding - Apple Support
Kind regards.
Thank you for your kind and timely response. I have tried everything in the book including restarting them, unplugging them, and even unpairing them. That’s why I believe the issue to be the software update. They were working fine up to then.
You’re not alone with this issue. After updating to 16.6, HomePods (2nd gen) volume and audio has been out of whack. Sat on the phone with a tech for a few hours, and still no “real” solution. Seems like a software issue.
Same here! A lot of bug since 16.6 on stereo pair HomePod 2nd Gen with the latest Apple TV. Sound control doesn't work on the right HomePod and the volume is VERY low on the right HomePod... "unresponsive" on Home app. Disconnecting and reconnecting from the router at night (saw notifications on Eero app), etc.
Hello G-Force__,
Thank you for this information, at this point it would be best that you contact Apple Support directly for more specific assistance with your HomePod.
Best regards.
You might break the stereo pair, reset each device individually, then make them a pair again.

Have tried all that and more many times, to no avail. Thanks for responding.
I’m sorry to hear of anyone else having the same issues but at the same time I’m glad I’m not alone. This should mean that there will be a fix forthcoming.
This! No matter what I do the remedy only lasts a few minutes, if at all.
