During the negotiations with the emperor Tiberius Chosroes died in 579, and was succeeded by his son Hormizd IV.

He was raised to the throne by the magnates who had rebelled against Hormizd IV.

 Frye.History of Ancient Iran
Hormizd IV, son of Chosroes and a Turkish princess given in marriage to the Sasanian monarch to promote good relations between the two states, inherited the war with Byzantium.
Hormizd suppressed the great nobility and protected the weak, which indicates a continued opposition to the policies of Chosroes, and it seems clear that internal affairs in Iran were most unsettled.
Bahram's demotion and revolt, attributed to the jealousy of Hormizd in the sources, surely had deeper roots in the unhappiness of the nobility with their ruler, for Bahram was supported by the nobility on all sides.

 Hormizd IV. − Wikipedia
Hormizd wurde von seinem Vater Chosrau I. als Nachfolger ausgewählt und durchgesetzt.
Offenbar kam es bald zu Spannungen mit dem Hochadel; sowohl in den westlichen (Theophylaktos Simokates) als auch in den orientalischen (Tabari) Quellen wird er sehr negativ dargestellt.
Einige Jahre lang konnte sich Hormizd, dessen tatsächliche Rolle letztlich schwer einzuschätzen ist, vermutlich dadurch auf dem Thron halten, dass er verschiedene Adelsparteien gegeneinander ausspielte.

..In the Syriaic chronicle of Arbela, we read that in the time of Vologeses IV (circa AD 191-207) the Parthians fought against the Persians, and later the same chronicle says: 'In earlier times the Persians tried to unseat the Parthians; many times they exerted them- selves in war but were defeated....
The coins of the last Arsacids, however, confuse the matter, so much that a long joint rule of Vologeses V (207-227?) and Artabanus V (213-224?) has been proposed with the son of Artabanus, Artavasdes, ruling one year 226-227....
