Where is “Auto-Launch Audio Apps” on new WatchOS ?

After a year, I'm using Apple Watch 6 again, but I found that the new watch OS lost the option Auto-Launch Audio Apps. If I can't turn this off, it means that my screen will show the music screen every time I'm listening to a song, which is not what I want, and I'd like to know how to turn this option off with the new system.
