No notifications after reconnection of watch

I have been successfully using an S2 sport and then switched to a classic with no problems on either watch. I use a Nexus 6 running AICP, an LP ROM based on Cyanogenmod. Yesterday a totally new problem emerged: After the watch disconnects from Bluetooth and then reconnects it no longer will receive notifications of any kind from the phone. Note that I do not use WiFi connectivity, just Bluetooth. All other communication with the phone like weather or incoming phone notifications still work after a reconnection.

If I light reset the watch and then restore the data I will get all notifications again so everything is set correctly on the phone and the watch. I then tried the following steps to see if I could fix the problem:
  • Uninstalled/reinstalled all Gear apps from the phone with no change in behavior.
  • Factory reset the watch with no change in behavior.
  • Uninstalled/reinstalled all Gear apps from the phone and factory reset the watch with no change in behavior.
  • Went back to the last nightly build of my ROM that I know was working correctly with the same behavior.

I can't think of anything else to do to try and fix the problem, anybody have any other ideas?

I did discover that once the watch stops receiving notifications, I can just restore the data without doing the light reset to reestablish notifications. It will be really annoying once I get back to work because I routinely walk away from my phone and the watch becomes disconnected. Having to restore the phone data in order to receive notifications will be problematic.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,
Fred
