Browser Autofill Shortcut does not work

Hi everyone,

I am a long time happy 1Password user and always enjoyed filling my passwords in Safari and Chrome by using the Cmd+\ shortcut whenever I encountered a sign in form.

Today, I decided to give the 1Password 8 Beta and the newest browser extensions a try (versions see below). In principle, everything still seems to be working as expected (extensions show in the Browser toolbars and I can manually fill credentials using the respective buttons in the extension UIs), but the mentioned keyboard shortcut no longer works (neither in Safari nor in Chrome).

In Safari, there is no reaction at all. In Chrome, the Mac menu bar flashes to 1Password for the fraction of a second, but no credentials are filled. This applies to all sites.

I double checked 1Password preferences and the shortcut seems to be set correctly. I tried to re-set the shortcut, but that didn't help.

My system is set to German and I'm using a German keyboard layout – maybe that may be a contributing factor?

I would appreciate any help. Thank you!


1Password Version: 8.2.2, Build 80202060
