PayPal autofill one-time password with hotkey
Why is it possible to use the one-time password via command key + hash key (+#) on some websites but not on PayPal.com?
How can I set it to be filled in using a key combination?

I have now been able to isolate the cause.
Actual situation:
I have my PayPal main account password stored in iCloud and 1Password.
I also have two other PayPal accounts stored in 1Password.
Until now, I had let Apple fill in the main account password and then wanted to use the key combination to fill in the one-time password.
1Password did not recognise which of the three passwords it was.
This time I proceeded differently.
Even though iCloud suggests the password, I still press the key combination.
Then I have to select the correct one of the 3 saved accounts in 1Password and click on "Auto-complete".
In the next step, the one-time password was now filled in correctly.
I know you can have the iCloud button overlay with the 1Password button, however I prefer to have my most important passwords stored twice. In iCloud and in 1Password.
