Disable Now Playing? (alien.top)

Is it still possible to disable auto-appearance of Now Playing on wrist raise when using Apple Music on my phone? I have the assistive touch hand gestures enabled and it keeps switching playlists when I put my hand behind my head. There used to be a setting under Auto Launch to disable this but it appears to be gone.

Auto launch is still there for me and turned off. https://i.imgur.com/4AXOmmL.jpg

This is already disabled and doesn't affect the launch of Now Playing for me.

Watch app / General / Auto-Launch or, on the watch itself, Settings app / General / Auto-Launch. Turn off Auto-Launch Audio Apps in that setting.

I believe that Auto-Launch was in a different place from General prior to watchOS 9 or watchOS 8.
