Controls on earbuds no longer function

[TJR1959]

Since pairing my Watch to my iPhone 6, the controls on my earbuds (both my  buds and my Bose buds) no longer work.
I can control music and podcast playback from my Watch, but none of the functions on the earbud controls work.
8.4 didn't fix the issue.
Anyone else experiencing this or have any suggestions?

Weird, have you tried with the  watch turned off or have tried it with a fresh install of 8.4

Thanks - good suggestion (I had forgotten I could actually turn off my Watch!)
So, turned it off, bud controls worked.
Turned it back on and... the controls continued to work. Hopefully it will stay that way. Weird.
Thanks again!

Posted too soon...
I have been listening to a podcast since my last post and the buds controls worked for a while, now they have stopped working again.
A bug, I think.

I would try unpairing and repairing the Watch. I am listening to a podcast right now, using  Earbuds and I am able to pause and start the podcast, raise and lower the volume and skip tracks. I even tried using the music player controls on my watch then went back to the headphones, no issue.
