I cannot connect my watch to my Apple TV for Fitness . My watch, iphone, and TV are all updated. I have tried unpairing and repairing my watch, restarting the ATV, force closing the fitness app and updating my Airplay/Homekit settings. Nothing works. Very frustrating. It works fine with another watch in my household. It worked one time a few days ago and now I cannot get it connected.

Apple Watch Series 6, watchOS 8

Those documents don’t apply as I’ve already been through those steps and had been using the Watch with Fitness+ successfully for some time. The problem started with the recent software updates and the most recent WatchOS update didn’t fix the problem.
