No matter what my watch will only use Bixby as the assistant for my Press and Hold action on button one.  I made sure preferences in Assistant were set.  I've switched the advanced / custom action multiple times and power cycled the watch after changes.  Does anyone have a solution?  Yes, the canned answer at Samsung support didn't help as I already did those things.
