Listening mode stuck: app and AirPods can't change mode, sometimes recovered by reconnect

[thisisAcidic]

Sometimes after the AirPods connect to the phone the listening mode controls stop working in both directions:

• Tapping a mode button in the app moves the visual selector to that button but the AirPods stay in their current mode.
• Live Update notification keeps showing the same label (e.g. "Off").
• Changing the mode on the AirPods themselves (gesture / stem) does not reflect in the app and no popup fires.

Putting the AirPods in the case, closing it, letting them disconnect, then reconnecting sometimes fixes it. Sometimes only after multiple tries.

Tested on Oppo Find X9 Pro with ColorOS 16, AirPods Pro 3.

I will attach logs the next time it happens.
