Push the battery in and out while pressing the trigger on the the drill to see if there is a loose connection here.
Check the battery terminals inside the drill and the battery terminals .These sometimes become tarnished and don't make contact. Clean with very fine sandpaper.

Just stopped working completely. It has no air leaks that I can hear.

the piston is probably dry and jammed or the hammer is stuck in a position that is not allowing air into the chamber
have it inspected by a tool repair shop and make sure that there is an oiler in the air line

It sounds like you were between gears. When you are in neither low or high, you are sort of in neutral. Normally it isn't a big deal. It happens to me occasionally, and I do what you did. You should be OK.
