[Linux] Gio/GVfs mounts fail when using the 1Password agent

I like to transfer files between machines through Nautilus (the GNOME file manager) which uses Gio/GVfs to mount a remote directory over SFTP. This works fine with regular key based authentication, but when switching to the 1Password agent, mounting this way results in Permission denied. I'm not sure if this is a bug in the agent or in Gio/GVfs, but it's the one thing preventing me from using it.

You can try connecting to a machine over SSH using GVFS_DEBUG=1 gio mount --detail sftp://[IP ADDRESS]

Here's what that looks like for me:

$ GVFS_DEBUG=1 gio mount --detail sftp://100.112.139.23
gio: sftp://100.112.139.23/: Permission denied

1Password Version: 8.6.0~26.BETA-1
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: Fedora Linux 35 (Workstation Edition)
