Phone and watch double counting steps

I have noticed my step count in Apple Health seems high. I looked at the data sources and both the phone and watch are adding to the step count. I’ve prioritized the watch but that hasn’t helped. Past posts I’ve seen say to deselect devices by tapping the checkmark, but that does nothing in my case. How do I fix it so just my watch is counting the steps? I have the latest updates on all the devices and done restarts multiple times.

iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 16
