Touch ID keeps getting turned off
Touch ID keeps getting shut off. I select to use Touch ID in settings. After some time, sometimes overnight, I come back and the box for Touch ID is unselected and I have to type my password. This is on my Desktop Mac Mini at home, so it is set to use Touch ID, and never have to type password. This started about 2-3 nightlies ago.
1Password Version: 8.10.36 (81036006)
Extension Version: 2.25.0
OS Version: Mac OS 14.5
Browser: Safari / Brave
Now 1Password says
"Touch ID sensor is currently unavailable. You need to sign in using the account password."
I have just locked my screen and unlocked it with the Touch ID so it is working.
I believe I have the same issue.
Could not work out why I was repeatedly asked for a password so checked setting and both Touch ID and Apple Watch were off. I did not turn them off.
Turned them on, will see if they go off again.
I seem to also be having the same problem. I am sending a diagnostics report.

I'm on the Beta channel for macOS Sonoma to get round problem with errant migration pop-up (81036001) and now TouchID setting refuses to turn on. (I see a very brief flash of a tick mark)
Update: Actually if I tick "Apple Watch" as an unlock option then Touch ID tick icon activates. But as per the OP TouchID turned itself off between yesterday and today.- 1P_Tommy
Thank you kindly.
