Steps To Reproduce

I have configured 4 WebAuthn credentials (VW, iCloud, Chrome, and another Chrome profile). Then, I try to log in to the Vaultwarden desktop app on macOS. After entering my username and password, the app prompts for 2FA via WebAuthn.

Expected Result

The app should proceed with the WebAuthn authentication flow, ideally using one of the working credentials like iCloud or VW. Alternatively, it should offer a way to choose a valid credential. In any case, I expect the 2FA step to complete and grant access to the app.

Actual Result

After entering my credentials, the app freezes at the 2FA step. No WebAuthn prompt appears, and I can’t interact with the app anymore. I’m attaching a screenshot/video below to show exactly what happens.
