Wear OS - Assist gets stuck on

Good day all,

I’ve recently been using the Wear OS Companion app and found an oddity. Wondering if it’s something I can change about my configuration.

What seems to happen so if I open the Assist shortcut from the apps list it will work normally (show the assist dialogue and listen). However if I swipe back and open the companion app the assist dialogue will show, and I can’t figure out how to get past it. Swiping back and clicking on it again has the same result. After a while (after I give up and move on with the day) it works normally again.

Any suggestions on how to access the main app interface after launching assist?
