Problem: gesture backlight is constantly on during running activity

I have the problem that during a running activity, the backlight constantly comes on even when I'm just doing normal running motions with my arm.

I have set the gesture option to "after sunset" for activities. I'm left handed and wear the watch on my right arm, this is set correctly in the settings.

When I'm running after sunset, the backlight is on for 99% of the time. As soon as I put my arm in a normal running position (which means that the watch face is turned in a 90 degree angle to the outside, i.e. it is showing "sideways") the backlight turns on and basically never goes off again.

What can be done about this? Software issue, hardware issue?
