Samsung watch 4 OS update issues

[SparkySteve]

Since my watch 4 updated it's OS the battery life is greatly reduced, 

But the main problem is the media control, it used to play music or last audio app that was run on my handset a samsung S23 ultra. But now the only way to play any music via my samsung Buds is via the phone. Also the control is very sketchy once playing music. 

So I've had to give up playing music or audible books on my buds
