Help Lemmy, Air Pods Pro 2 won't connect to my Steam Deck and I'm at an Airport about to hop on a 4 hour flight!

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 :-/

Restart the Steam deck. Disable bluetooth on your iPhone just in case it is connecting to the headset while you are trying to pair. Then try to pair it again.
- Every time I end up with a finicky bluetooth pairing process, I turn off bluetooth on all devices other than the one I'm trying to pair to. Usually fixes any problem.
  
  I wish most BT devices supported being booted from a connection to connect to another so long as its a recognized device.
  Playing "guess which device is connected to what" when you just want to quickly use a BT device is a pain in the ass
  
  And that's how I woke the wife when the pornhub jingle came through the bathroom bt speaker.
  
  This made my day. Thank you.
