Hiya, I have exactly the same issue on my right EarPod on Airpods Pro 1st gen. Took it to store, said 85 pounds for replacement. At this stage I have disabled noise cancelling on right one, liveable for now. Hopefully new updates coming soon. Let me know if you manage different fixes

Same here, conclusion was to pay 85 USD to replace it. I’ll try to disable noise cancelling. It’s frustrating since within my first two years of owning the AirPods I had to get both replaced, and now I have to pay to replace one … come on apple!
