I forgot to attach the diagnostic file, so here's my new bot # RPP-27345-657
Jac asked me to do this:

Disable Apple Watch Unlock in 1Password for Mac (1Password > Settings > Security > Uncheck "Apple Watch"). (If you don’t see the Apple Watch option in 1Password then skip this step.)
Disable Apple Watch Unlock for your Mac (In the MacOS menu bar:  > System Settings > Touch ID & Password > Uncheck your Apple Watch under "Use your Apple Watch to unlock your applications and your Mac")
Turn off your Mac.
Restart your Apple Watch: Restart your Apple Watch - Apple Support
Turn on your Mac.
Enable Apple Watch Unlock for your Mac (In the MacOS menu bar:  > System Settings > Touch ID & Password > Check your Apple Watch under "Use your Apple Watch to unlock your applications and your Mac")
Enable Apple Watch Unlock in 1Password for Mac (1Password > Settings > Security > Check "Apple Watch").

Which I already did a lot of time before Sonoma, but now I don't have to do anymore to be able to unlock my MacBook with my watch. The watch always unlock my Mac now, and the solution for me was either:

  • Connect both external displays are connected directly to my MacBook Pro 16'' and NOT on my Caldigit TS3, or
  • Mac OS Sonoma

*It's the 1Password unlock that's not consistant.
