Every single pregame that I participate in, as either the referee, or the umpire, will contain some variation of the following:

On double whistles, let’s both hold our preliminary signal and not give a block or player control signal.
Make eye contact with each other. Give the call to whoever has the primary coverage, most often the
lead official, unless you definitely have something different that happened first, in which case we’ll
talk about it.

Of course, this only works if both of the officials realize that there has been a double whistle.
