I guess YouTube music is installed in your watch.

It sounds like you're referring to the "Cast" icon that appears when you're playing a YouTube video on your phone. This icon allows you to cast the video to another device like a smart TV or a Chromecast.

To disable this feature, follow these steps:

1. **Open the YouTube App**: Launch the YouTube app on your phone.
2. **Play a Video**: Start playing a video.
3. **Look for the Cast Icon**: It usually appears on the top-right corner of the video player.
4. **Tap the Cast Icon**: When you tap it, a list of available devices will appear.
5. **Select "Phone" or "This Device"**: This will stop casting the video to any other devices.

If you continue to have issues or if there have been significant changes in the YouTube app after my last training data in September 2021, I recommend checking YouTube's official support resources or community forums for the most recent instructions.

At last I found this. It's not YouTube specific. Rather it's a wear os feature. You have to enable developer mode to disable the music note icon (that opens the media control).

This is from a Reddit post:

This little note icon has been bugging me for a long time, especially since I'm not using stock music controls. But I've finally found a way to disable it:

Open Settings on the watch

Go to About watch -> Software

Tap on the "Software version" until you see developer options enabled

Go back to main settings menu. "Developer options" should appear near the bottom

Open developer options

Select "App notifications" (near the bottom)

Select Show all

Select "Wear OS"

Disable "Ongoing media notification" toggle
