Music controls: Volume buttons not working on watch with Bluetooth headset

Forerunner 945: I have paired it with my Bluetooth earphones ok but the volume controls do not work on the watch. The volume seems set by default at 100% and is deafening! (there are no volume controls on my actual ear phones so the setup is not usable). My ear phones are BT v5.0 ( myinnov-x10 ) and work perfectly with my Iphone and other devices. I welcome any advice. Note the other music controls (like play/pause/previous) all work ok - it's just the volume on the watch that is the issue. When I press the buttons I can see the press being registered on the watch (+, - signs highlight at each press) but the headphones do not get the signal.

    Same issue with Philips UT102 - I can't believe a major feature doesn't work for a year without Garmin fixing it

    Same issue with another Bluetooth 5 set of earbuds (km42829652). Almost blew my ears drums out because it defaults to max volume too.

    Amazed that this has been outstanding this long on a device that costs this much.

    It is working for some people. It works good with my FiiO uBTR receiver. What I've experienced is that if I get any issues with the sound quality or connection a restart with the Bluetooth on my phone turned off will fix it. If it only connects to the watch and that the watch is the primary unit everything works.
