Can I ask what solution helped you to pair them with the Steam deck?
Hey yeah, sorry on my Honeymoon so only near my phone and the deck itself sporadically. I still am not 100% positive which of the suggestions made it eventually pair because I was taking a bit of a shotgun approach to trying nearly everything at once before takeoff.
With that said it's likely the following:
-
Turning off Find My in the Air Pod settings (general settings area on the iPhone)
-
Renaming the Airpods to something different (BatPods in my case lol)
-
Turning off BT on the iPhone
-
Paired EVENTUALLY in game mode for me (others suggested Desktop mode which I tried but it didn't work)
-
Trying repeatedly without changing stuff every time. It took a while for it to finally pair while.
Idk what did it (switched to beta too), but it paired and I will say I still don't have volume in certain games (Sekiro for example which is somehow extra hard without sound haha).
I will investigate further after the trip but won't unpaid till then and try again. Will try to narrow it down though to help my fellow Lemmings.
Here's the link to their post at least. Don't know which answer helped them though.
Can we get some more information about what the problem and solution was? Or a link to your other thread?
