[Q] Texting Number changes depending on method sent - Samsung Gear S

Anyone owning the Gear S having an issue with the watch sending text message from either the watch number or your cell phone number depending on the method you create the message on the watch? Or better have a solution to fix it?
IE;
While no longer bluetoothed to my cell phone (but with call FWD turned on) If I swipe down go to messages and create a message the receiving person gets a text message from the CELL phone number. However if I then use the S-Voice feature to text the same person they receive a text message from the WATCH phone number. If I get a text message from someone that was FWDed to my watch from my phone and respond to it they get a text message from the CELL phone number. However if I get a phone call from someone FEDed to my watch and hit end then select a quick response to the person they get a text message from the WATCH phone number. If I were to go back into messages and respond to the same thread of message it continues to text the person from the WATCH phone number. I have to create a new message in the messages section in order to make it go back to the CELL PHONE number.

YEah, that's pretty annoying. my wife is a little upset I have 2 numbers now.

I was a little annoyed by the second number as well. More so because they don't mention it and only state it in the fine print on the site. However it only real comes into play when you call out, or experience my issue. I am currently in conversation with Samsung over a long posting back and forth. It is sounding like its a software issue (go figure), however they are not exactly forth coming with such information.
Are you having the same problem?

No you didn't read my whole description of the issue. Sometimes it does it the way its suppose to sometimes it does not. All depends on what I use to create the SMS. It is setup properly; double checked that many times.
