Airpods PRO Microphone is muffled

AirPods Pro Microphone is muffled. I tried a doing a voice recording and the result is very muffled. I have tried resetting the AirPods Pro, but the issue is unchanged. What you you suggest I do?

Thank you! I tried it now and it partially solves the issue. The volume is still lower than usual and perhaps also the range is somewhat reduced. Do you have any other suggestions? I was also planing to clean the microphones of the AirPod Pros with Q-tips and alcohol, though there is no visual signs or clogging.

So I think I have an idea of what the issue is. Try turning off noise canceling by following the steps below:


Go to Settings > accessibility > Audio/Visual > untick (turn OFF) Phone Noise Cancellation.
