Apple Watch 4 Vibrates but doesn’t ring

I have Apple Watch 4 and iPhone X with updated software. When I get a phone call, it shows on my watch and vibrates but does not ring. The iPhone rings. How do I get the watch to also ring?

Issue resolved. Unpaired watch. Restarted watch. Restarted iPhone. Re-paired watch and set up as new (did not restore from backup). It was apparently a system glitch or hidden setting. Apple Support couldn’t resolve it but the steps above did.
