Abstract

An audio data transmission method. An electronic device transmits audio data to a first earbud of a TWS headset by using a first CIS of a first CIG, and transmits audio data to a second earbud of the TWS headset by using a second CIS of the first CIG. The electronic device determines that the TWS headset is switched from a double-earbud mode (namely, a mode in which the first earbud and the second earbud are used together as audio input/output devices of the electronic device) to a first single-earbud mode (namely, a mode in which the first earbud is independently used as an audio input/output device of the electronic device). In response to the determining, the electronic device deactivates the second CIS, stops transmitting audio data to the second earbud by using the second CIS, and continues transmitting audio data to the first earbud by using the first CIS.
