Unfortunately, it looks like the new update didn't completely fix the problem for everyone, at least according to the complaints that soon appeared on Reddit. Some users believe that the issue may be related to the age of the watch – models made around August of last year seem to be more affected than newer ones. Others advise as a solution to send the watch for repair or have it replaced (if it is still under warranty, of course). Considering all these reports, it looks like it's 50/50. Some users were helped by the new update, others were not.
