Voice Assistant

When I first setup the watch I selected Alexa as the the voice assistant through the connect app. Well at first Google assistant was coming up when I pressed the button on the watch which was fine. The problem now after I restarted the watch when I press the Assistant button it tries to open Alexa assistant and it fails. I have a Samsung Note 9 and the default assistant is set to Google in the settings. I have gone through the online setup but it still tries to open Alexa. I have no idea how to change this to make Google work and I even reset the watch and removed the Connect apps from my phone. My phone uses Google when I say Hey Google so I know it's working but the watch somehow is defaulted to Alexa.

SOLVED, I temporarily uninstalled Amazon Alexa from the phone, then started communication from the watch and selected the correct assistant on the phone during the dialogue. It works fine now with Google assistant.

The problem was that the watch was trying to communicate with ALEXA on my mobile, which I had previously used as the default voice assistant. I was not able to switch to Goggle Assistant without this hack.
