Not sure whats going on, I open the case with the buds in hold down the button and put it in pairing. The Steam Deck sees it but won’t pair with it. Idk what’s going on. I have reset it, disconnected it from the iPhone, idk what else to try. Desktop mode and Game mode won’t pair :-/
Forget the device and pair again. If you paired your airpods with too many devices it won’t connect using the old pairing and AirPods simply forgot the Deck. Not sure if it’s possible to do fron deck ui, but you can do that easily in desktop
