Galaxy Watch 4 walking cadence out by a factor 2

[IainStrachan]

I recently purchased a Galaxy watch 4 classic and am using it to log exercise sessions.

I have found that when reported to Strava, during a walking workout, it reports the steps per minute at almost exactly twice the actual rate. I had a metronome app, and walked a circuit at exactly 120 bpm, but the Strava app is showing a cadence rate of 238 steps per minute.

However, if I set the activity to running, it reports the correct cadence rate.

Has anyone else got this issue, and is there a fix?
