      Hi Charles,

      Thank you for the review and we're glad to hear that you like the sound quality of the headphones. We do apologize for the inconvenience. Factory reset the headphones and try again. Check this link on how to.

      https://helpguide.sony.net/mdr/wh1000xm5/v1/en/contents/TP1000541013.html

      If the same issue persist, update the software of your headphones via Sony sound connect app. A firmware update improves the functionality and features of your device. It can provide fixes to any performance issues that may occur.
