A couple days ago while answering a call on my watch I found out the caller could not hear me talking, in addition the voice to text has not been working well and most times it can't hear me to transfer into text. After doing watch diagnostic from the forum I realize the microphone on my watch is not working properly. Has anyone else had this issue? I've tried cleaning out the port with light compressed air, and such but nothing has worked. Does anyone know if this is a defect or a software update issue? Of course I noticed after the latest update. I'm going to take it in for service but I wanted to ask here first.

It sounds like a genuine issue with your hardware. FWIW I haven't noticed anyone else posting about W6C mics going sideways before or after updates.

Have you attempted to factory reset the watch and restore from a backup? The process is fairly quick and might fix the microphone issue.
