AirPod Pro Noise cancelling not working well

Noise cancelling seems much worse lately in screening out office noise. Checked and still is only audio function selected. I have a iPhone 13 mini and recently updated my iOS to 17.1.2 Have AirPods Pro 2nd Generation which also updated my firmware to 6B34. Any suggestions?

iPhone 13 mini, iOS 17

AirPod Pro Sound Quality is Bad After IOS16.3 Update My AirPod Pro’s sound tinny or almost like they are not synched between right and left after I updated to IOS 16.3. I thought it was the AirPods at first but I have two sets and both are doing the same thing. I also have hearing aids that connect as well and they also have the same problem when listening to music or podcasts. Sound is also bad when watching streamed shows. I have an IPhone 12 Pro. Sound is fine on IPad Pro after updating to IOS16.3. Problem only seems to be on IPhone. Anybody else have this problem? If you have solved it, please reply with the fix.

Took it to Apple Reseller and they tested and agreed was not working, they then found they had to redo Firmware Update as perhaps never installed properly and now they seem to be working
