Description

### Steps To Reproduce

Simply open Bitwarden app

### Expected Result

Should allow for biometrics and have the custom lockout set.

### Actual Result

Requests password and has biometrics deselected in settings and timeout is back to 15 minutes.

### Screenshots or Videos

_No response_

### Additional Context

This makes it so biometrics doesn't work and you have to type your master password each time the app reaches timeout. And it resets the timeout to 15 minutes.
