Upload of data to Garmin Connect from TACX Desktop and Fenix watch differ

I seem to get a duplicate of my activity on Garmin connect, one from my Fenix 3 and the other from Tacx Desktop/Vortex trainer. How can I avoid this and why should there be such a big difference in data and which one is likely to be correct?

Thanking you

Too much guessing on my side but here I go. The 11.5 Km comes from Tacx Desktop, and it is converting power to distance (it factors elevation, your weight, and probably rolling resistance to do so).

The 15.79km activity comes from Fenix3 paired to a speed sensor in your rear wheel.

Thanks for the feedback. Far better than anything I could have guessed and makes sense. I think I need to make a choice as to what app I do my training with. Never been an issue until they merged the platforms! Always used my watch for the data on my training rides because Connect provides better feedback and info in terms of fitness data. I need to find a way to stopping TACX Desktop up loading to Connect. Again thanks.
