Thank you for the reply, Julian. I feel much, much better, now. I was beginning to think that I was doing something wrong.
Also, thank you for confirming 2 brands of products that can still accomplish VoiceOver audio switching between the phone and the watch. I have really resisted using third-party headsets as I do so love my Airpods. Again, thank you.

Hi Mark, Unfortunately, this is clearly bad implementation on the part of Apple. It bewilders me to know end that having control of the entire chain, they cannot get multipoint connection to work as expected between an iPhone, an Apple Watch, and AirPods. there are myriad third-party headsets that handle this just fine, including the under $30 pair that I occasionally use. Any Plantronics or Blue Parrot headset also does this quite well. I hope that in the future Apple is finally able to get its act together and make this work the way it's supposed to.
