If the main 1Password app is running on your Mac (even only in the menu bar), then the browser extensions will lock and unlock at the same time as the app. This is called Shared Lock State.
If you quit 1Password and it's not set to stay in the menu bar, then it will lock, meaning you'd need to unlock it again next time. Try this:

- On the General tab, make sure that "Keep 1Password in the menu bar" is turned on.
That way, even if you quit 1Password from the 1Password menu or by pressing ⌘Q, it'll stay in the menu bar and your usual Auto-Lock settings will apply.
Give that a try and let me know how you get on. I'll be here if you need further help.
