Fenix 5/Garmin Connect default music player doesn't make a difference? Frustrating

So I have selected Google Music as default player on Android. I made sure everything synced and the app is always running in the background. However, if I open the Sonos app on my phone to turn on home music, the watch now shows Sonos in the music app and tries to control it. It cannot of course, but if I leave the house and go the track, the damn watch still tries to control Sonos. If I forget to start music playing for one second via the phone I am out of luck and have to remove phone from running belt and set everything up.
Why even have a default player option? I could have 4 music apps open and it goes with the last I played and not the default I chose. This is very frustrating and my Garmin Fenix 3 did not do this.
