AirPods Pro 2 lose sound with Samsung TV

I was using AirPods version 3 for sound on my Samsung tv and they work perfectly. Upgraded to AirPods Pro version 2 and now if I fast forward/rewind/pause or the episode finishes the AirPods lose the sound. You also can’t skip the recap on the previous episode. Basically you can’t use the remote or you lose sound. The TV also has no sound at this point. So each time you need to go to the sound menu on the tv where it shows AirPods Pro 2 are connected, and have to disconnect and reconnect them every time to get the sound back. Extremely annoying.

Hey I also have this problem.


To add to the issue, whenever I skip in a show or anything it goes silent.


However, if you have another connection through HDMi (PS5, Apple TV, Xbox, Freeview) it'll not disconnect at all.


So if this is as enraging as it is to me for whatever reason, get a cheap Xbox 360 or ps3 or even 2 and just run ur streaming services off that.


But however I'm flatting so may be more pertinent to me than y'all

The problem is the AirPods interfere with the remote control signal. If you connect the AirPods and do not touch the remote they will work. But as soon as you start using the remote, it will interfere with the signal and kill it. I can’t get Apple to pay attention to this problem and fix it. Their tech support people are dumb and they don’t like it when you fix the problem

Tried verifying your theory by using an APP instead of the remote to control my SAMSUNG tv. Please keep in mind: iPhone‘s Bluetooth was deactivated and the app uses WIFI to control the TV.


exact same issue > AirPodPro Gen 2 stop to stream sound whenever you scroll or navigate within the Samsung menu. Never had that issue with with AirPodPro Gen1.


@apple: so you support Samsung with native APPs (Apple TV) but you don’t care about this?
