How to control volume when sharing audio
When you're sharing audio between two pairs of Airpods or Beats headphones, you can control each pair separately. This means you can change the volume, as well as play, pause and stop audio individually using the Lock Screen controls or the Control Centre controls.
You can access volume controls in the app you are listening to, as well by tapping on the AirPlay icon. If you press and hold the volume slider in Control Centre, you will see both headphone volume controls appear on the screen as large vertical bars.
To control the volume of either set of headphones, you'll need to drag the volume slider on each pair, or use the headphones themselves. For example, with AirPods Max you would turn the Digital Crown. If you use either of these methods, only that particular pair of headphones will be affected.

How to stop sharing audio
To stop sharing audio with another pair of headphones, you just need to tap the AirPlay icon in the Control Centre on your iPhone or iPad, the Lock Screen or in the app you are listening to.
Untick the pair of headphones you want to stop sharing audio to. You'll disconnect the second set of headphones when you do this.
