What is happening with the issue of apple AirPods cutting out after a few seconds when using Apple watch? The watch shows that the music is still playing but nothing is heard on my AirPods. I bought the watch with cellular so I wouldn't have to carry my phone, and guess what I'm doing now? Carrying my phone. Other earbuds work fine with the watch, so it seems to be an Apple problem.
