I drafted a question to the r/discordapp subreddit. I don't have a Reddit account, so I couldn't post it and I have to wait a few days it seems:
I'm running a Discord server dedicated to helping people study, and I've run into an issue that I'm hoping the community can help me solve.
Pros of using a voice channel:
Cons:
We've considered using a text channel instead, but:
From what I understand:
Is there a way to have the advantages of a voice channel (visibility, sense of community) without any of the voice abilities? Essentially, can we create a "silent" voice channel that doesn't interfere with audio settings?
I'm open to any suggestions.
I've posted the issue to the r/discordapp subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/discordapp/comments/1eviaoi/discord_audio_quality_issue_with_airpods_in_study/
@korynelson requirement for filing a bug on Discord is we have to also post to a bug thread.
Can you review and fill out any missing information?

Additional Notes:
ISSUE:
This is what gpt told me about the voice defaults:
You generally cannot use the Headphones (AirPods Pro - Find My Stereo) profile and the Headset (AirPods Pro - Find My Hands-Free AG Audio) profile simultaneously. Here's why:
Headphones Profile: Provides high-quality stereo audio for media playback. Headset Profile: Optimized for voice calls and communication, typically at the expense of stereo audio quality. If you're in a Discord voice chat room, your AirPods will likely switch to the Headset profile to handle the voice communication. This means that while you're on a call or voice chat, you might not be able to enjoy the high-fidelity stereo audio that the headphones profile offers.
However, you can still listen to other media with high-quality audio when you're not using the headset profile for voice communication. You might need to switch between profiles depending on your activity.
