I have a solution for that: with bare hands close your ears tightly with Airpods in them. Depending on the duration of such covering Airpods either just mute for a moment, or disconnect and reconnect right away. This helps to re-sync if one is ahead/behind another, or if one is not connected. I do that occasionally with my Airpods Pro connected to iPhone, Android or Macbook Pro - same outcome in all these cases. Such connection "reboot" helps in most described cases, though occasionally explicit Bluetooth toggle Off/On is needed, especially with the Macbook.
I imagine that hands and head create an improvised Faraday cage. Though 2.4GHz Bluetooth signal should nevertheless pass thought the body tissue, likely there is just a signa-to-noise ratio rapid drop which forces Airpods to re-establish the connection.
