My AirPods won’t both play at the same time

When I take both of the AirPods out of the case, then only one will play at a time. It will either connect to my right to left (whichever one I take out first usually). Then, after about 20 seconds of it playing the audio will start to cut in and out of the one that is working. How do I fix this?
