Can't connect to airpods pro on new macbook

How can I connect my airpods to my new mac? They automatically show as "connected" in the bluetooth preferences but it doesn't let me actually connect and choose the airpods as sound output. "Forgetting" the airpods does not solve it either.

MacBook Pro (2020 and later)
