Disconnect Between IPhone and Apple Watch

When I answer an incoming phone call using my Apple Watch and I’m in the middle of playing music or a podcast on my iPhone, the music continues to play after I answer the call. If I use the phone to accept the call, then it pauses. Is there a way to fix this?

Apple Watch Series 8, watchOS 9

Syncing has likely failed. So, unpair, then pair it. Use the fowling links, in the order provided.
