Switching AirPods from Highquality stereo playback mode to webRTC audio capture breaks - sometimes - and only on iOS . Steps to replicate on ios/ipados 16.3: Close all apps (including safari) Connect your AirPods (or other bluetooth audio device) Open a safari page to play some music (e.g. https://www.randyresnick.com/) Open second safari tab (leave the audio playing in the first one) In the second tab browse to https://dev.pi.pe/df/avp.html Accept the prompt - you’ll hear audio from a podcast (over webRTC) Give permission for microphone use. Audio stops. (as soon as GetUserMedia returns) Close the music tab You now hear audio from the podcast tab again Repeat without bluetooth (builtin or analog headphones) you get to keep the audio. This doesn’t happen on macOS. (Or chrome on android) This bug causes user experience to depend on what else they have open.
