Description

### Steps To Reproduce

Click view extention.
Loop loading vault
Or
Click view extention.
searching for a record
The extension forgot to search for the recording in the vault.

### Expected Result

Displaying the trunk immediately

Immediate display of search results related to the registration

### Actual Result

In case 1, the trunk recharges in a loop
In the second case, the extension forgets to perform the search we enter in the search field.

### Screenshots or Videos

I would add them when the symptom appears; the symptoms are frequent but not constant, but present enough to be bothersome.

### Additional Context

This has been going on for over 6 months and it's quite a problem, causing request losses due to the extension to the self-hosted instance or simply looping loads.

### Operating System

Linux

### Operating System Version

Debian 12

### Web Browser

Chrome

### Browser Version

_No response_

### Environment Versions

### Issue Tracking Info

- [x] I understand that work is tracked outside of Github. A PR will be linked to this issue should one be opened to address it, but Bitwarden doesn't use fields like "assigned", "milestone", or "project" to track progress.

Research direction

Start by reproducing both reported cases in the browser extension on Chrome under Linux/Debian 12: opening the extension and searching for a vault record. Trace the extension's loading and search flow from the observed behavior; done means the vault view loads without looping and entered searches consistently display related results.
