the issue was resolved (the missing gnome-keyring!)
Since yesterday, after installing EndeavourOS with Cinnamon desktop, I also got the message, that the Two-Factor-Token could not be saved.

Found out, that the issue was, that package gnome-keyring was missing. So I installed from Arch-Repo and restarted my PC. Since then, the message didn't appear after entering my 2fa code.

Maybe it would be helpful to add gnome-keyring as a dependency when installing 1Password from the AUR?
