Hi

Since update to watchOS 9.1 I am having issues using xcodebuild commands on my real Apple Watch, It is just not visible, however, it is always visible from Xcode UI. Sometimes, when I restart my iPhone it picks up the Apple Watch destination - it happens in rare cases, mostly I see this result.

xcodebuild -workspace MyApp.xcworkspace -scheme 'MyApp WatchKit App' -destination 'platform=watchOS,id=Watch's ID'

(null) needs to connect to determine its availability. 
Check the connection between the device and its companion iPhone, and the connection between the iPhone and Xcode. 
Both devices may also need to be restarted and unlocked.```

Also, when I look for available destinations for my WatchKit App Scheme: xcodebuild -project MyApp.xcodeproj -scheme 'MyApp Watch App' -showdestinations
