This is after re-enabling Windows Hello, after which it promptly stopped working and asked for the password again. I will now turn on automatic Windows Hello, which I suspect will produce the background activation.

Edit: I re-enabled automatic Windows Hello and it seems 1Password is triggering Windows Hello every time it auto-locks. It does push itself to the foreground when it does that, but if you're doing something, you will probably just miss it because it goes so fast. Then it fails.
