1password8 error when trying cli "op" derived from Homebrew on a M1 Mac

Hi, there I installed the 1password from Homebrew following this guide (https://developer.1password.com/docs/cli/get-started/). I use the latest 1password8 desktop app on my M1 Mac with Sonoma 14....

I also get this error when using op. It only occurs on the first auth-required call (e.g. op vault ls). The first call returns that error. Subsequent calls work just fine for me, with the system's touch ID prompt appearing. After a timeout, it seems the CLI -> app integration drops again, and I get the same error once again.

I'm on an M1 Mac, and https://docs.brew.sh/Installation under /opt/homebrew on my machine. I can manually link the installation under /usr/local/bin, but this is not the default behavior for Homebrew on my machine and is not mentioned in the https://developer.1password.com/docs/cli/get-started/. Moreover, Homebrew inserts its binary directory before /usr/local/bin in the PATH, and reversing that change would break many other Homebrew-installed applications, so I would have to use the full path /usr/local/bin/op every time I want to invoke op.

Homebrew PATH changes:
```
% grep opt .zprofile

eval "$(/opt/homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)"

% /opt/homebrew/bin/brew shellenv | grep "export PATH"

export PATH="/opt/homebrew/bin:/opt/homebrew/sbin${PATH+:$PATH}";
```

My 1Password app is at version 1Password for Mac 8.10.16 (81016047) and the CLI is 2.21.0.
