id.me uses nonstandard TOTP URL scheme?

I am setting up an account with id.me and 1Password is unable to set up TOTP codes. 1P provides the following error upon scanning the TOTP setup code: "the one-time password URL is incorrect: the scheme is invalid."

When I check the TOTP setup URL for id.me, it does not follow the format of:

otpauth://totp/...

Instead, id.me provides a path that looks like this:  

https://account.id.me/mobile/generator/...

I've tried scanning the QR code into 1P with the browser plugin and my phone, and the same error message keeps appearing. I keep my software up to date... not running old versions of 1P.

Also, I have an existing account with id.me and I'm able to use 1Password to provide TOTP codes to complete logins. And that entry uses the otpauth://totp/ URL scheme.

Has anyone else encountered this issue with recent setups of TOTP for id.me using 1P?
