      @3urgundy Have you tried going into the Wearable app -> Watch settings -> Notifications -> Help with notifications? It can give you information which may help you resolve the issue.

      Do you have sound enabled on the phone? If the phone is on silent or mute the watch won't get notifications.

      In the Wearable app, do you have notifications set to always go to both the watch and phone?

      I purchased my ultra2 in August. No notification sounds eith hoogke messaging unless I turn off wrist detection ( per Samsung tech support). Google messages won't reach lte watch unless phone is left on. It doesn't need to be near you but must be left on.

      Amazon music won't stream unless phone is turned on.

      Samsung tech support advised me they believe some issues were caused with the last upgrade and are working in a solution.
      Personally speaking, I've been in with att ( my mobile provider) FB Samsung dms with tech support. Then the 800 Samsung tech sent me to a you break I fix store. All they could try to do was to reset the watch back to factory and then update it again. And of course, I had all the same problems after they did that. So that was another few hours wasted. I probably have six or seven hours into these failures. Finally, it was the eight hundred number of samsung tech support that let me know that they now realize they have issues, which is very sad for such an expensive product. I've been using Samsung Android products since my Galaxy. S one and I have to say, I am so frustrated that I almost wish I went to apple.
