Apple Watch 7 not sound or haptic

I have got this latest Apple Watch 7 and sometimes neither the sound nor the haptics work. This has happened about once a week and is really annoying. When it happens, even if I turn off Do not disturb, Focus, Theatre mode, etc., it won't make a sound or haptic. It works again after restarting before it breaks down again. How can I fix this?

You'll also want to check the speaker of the Apple Watch for any debris, along with removing its case (if applicable) to ensure it's not covering the speaker. If you find debris, you'll want to gently clear them away. How to clean your Apple Watch
