Minor bug : cosmetic issue after setup with QR-code?

After installing 1password on Ubuntu 24.14 or EndeavourOS and transferring the account with the QR-code, there is an issue with conflicting screens if the 1Password account is protected with an authentication code or key. I'm testing ansible installations so I became rather familiar with the issue. :)

To replicate:

  1. Install Ubuntu or EndeavourOS
  2. Install 1Password
  3. Transfer the keys to 1Password, using 1Password on the smartphone to scan the QR-code on the linux app. (At this time, the system doesn't ask for authentication or key, and that's a problem in itself IMO)
  4. Reboot (I guess logout will also work)
  5. Open 1Password.
  6. The system will now show you two overlapping screens: one to link 1Password to the linux user account and one to enter the authentication code or key.

The only way to untangle myself from this situation is closing 1Password. When you reopen 1Password, you have to click on sign-on in the warning message underneath to use a key or authentication code.

The link between 1Password and the linux account has to be established through settings.
