Apple Watch Chimes Sound when Sleep Mode is on

Hi to all,


I have been having a problem with my Apple Watch S7 lately. I go to bed in the evening, Sleep Mode turns on automatically, I manually turn off vibrations on the watch (Red Bell is off - so that I wake up in the morning with an alarm clock with vibrations, not just vibrations). And before I fall asleep, I watch TV shows on my iPhone, for example.


I have Chimes set on my Apple Watch, and when the clock strikes, they will chime. It didn't do that before, simply when Sleep Mode was on, sounds were enabled (including vibrations), the watch didn't notify anything in Sleep Mode.


I've had Focuses set up for quite some time, I don't think there will be a problem there. I recently bought an iPhone 14 Pro Max, but the settings transferred without a problem. And I think everything is set up correctly.


I'm asking for advice if anyone else has encountered this or if your Watch is also doing this to you during Sleep Mode.


Thanks in advance for the advice and answers.
