I have some USB-C speakers I plug into the back of my Mac mini that are doing that.  I noticed it happened mostly when I would use my AirPods in the mornings before everyone got up, and tried to switch back.  Sound would be coming from the Mini and not the speakers.  The only way to fix would be to unplug and replug them in.  I then ran a second USB-C to the speakers PD port to essentially 'power' them, but I still find that it will fall back to the internal speakers at odd times (after sleep, first use in the morning, after using AirPods), but then in the last week, I haven't had any issues.
