WatchOS simulator - Cannot play sounds while iPhone simulator works

Hello, everyone, I have a problem I'm stuck with and have been trying to solve without success for the past 2 weeks.

I am developing a SwiftUI application for Apple Watch which for now I am only running on the simulator. This application has to play sounds but unfortunately so far without success for Apple Watch simulator.

When I tap the button on the application running on the Series 9 (45mm) simulator with watchOS 10.2. I cannot hear any sounds on my MacBook Pro. This happens for all Apple Watch simulators I have in my MacBook.

The same exact code works on the iPhone 15 simulator with iOS 17.2 and I hear the file 1.mp3 from MacBook Pro speakers and also from bluetooth hearphones, if I connect them.

The code is this

import SwiftUI
import AVFoundation

struct ContentView: View {
    @State var audioPlayer:AVPlayer?
    @State var isPlaying : Bool = false
    
    var body: some View {
        VStack {
            Image(systemName: "globe")
                .imageScale(.large)
                .foregroundStyle(.tint)
            Text("Hello, world!")
            Button("Play"){
                if let path = Bundle.main.path(forResource: "1", ofType: "mp3") {

                    let fileUrl = URL(fileURLWithPath: path)

                    do{
                        try AVAudioSession.sharedInstance().setCategory(AVAudioSession.Category.playback)
                        try AVAudioSession.sharedInstance().setActive(true)

                        audioPlayer = AVPlayer(url: fileUrl)

                        guard let audioPlayer = audioPlayer else { return }
                        audioPlayer.play()

                    } catch {

                    }
                }
            }
        }
        .padding()
    }
}

Thanks for your support!
