I assume he has Now Playing set to be a complication. This is a new option and I love it.

Which app are you using to play your audio book? Is that particular app installed on your watch? After reading your post, I immediately began playback of an audiobook in my iBooks app on my 6 Plus running 10.33. While the book was playing, I touched my Series 2 watch which is running Watch OS 3, in order to wake it up. Doing this did not result in a now playing screen on my watch. Perhaps another Watch OS 4 user could try to reproduce your findings. If they cannot, then your problem may simply be the result of a software setting.

This is beginning to be very annoying when I want to quickly hear the time.
