'SoloAmbient doesn't respect Silent Mode?

I set my AVAudioSession mode to SoloAmbient.

Using the default speaker on the phone, the silent mode will be respected and my app sound is muted.

[[AVAudioSession sharedInstance] setCategory: AVAudioSessionCategorySoloAmbient error: nil];

However, when I connect my phone to my AirPods, the silent mode is not respected. I can't find this documented anywhere?
