AirPods Pro 2 charging chime and flashing behavior changes after firmware update

Hey guys, so basically, whenever my APP2 usbC case was 40% or less, it would make a specific chime when i closed the lid after i put my airpods back in it. However now that specific chime is made only when i take the airpods out of the case, and just sometimes.

Another thing, the case flashes orange a few times when its low on battery when i open it without the airpods inside, it always just shined once and then the light would fade away.

Is it the same for yall?

Apparently the rapid orange flashing means a connectivity issue? But it only happens in that scenario i listed.

Is it because of the new firmware update 8A356 that came out Sep 15th?

Thank you guys for answers!
