Connect your airpods to the Pixel, start listening to some music, then disable bluetooth, after that enable it again, wait for the airpods to connect again, play some music. Usually this works for me...

Hi all, I noticed that my Airpods are now softer at max volume than they were before. When I watch the same video on YouTube on my laptop, it's quite loud, and then on my phone (at max volume) it is about medium volume. Same thing with Spotify. I have disabled "Absolute Volume" or whatever in the developer options, and tinkered around in the Spotify settings and nothing seems to work. 

Anybody else experiencing this or know any solutions? Thanks.
