Description

Steps to reproduce
  1. Install Dashlane & this plugin
  2. Configure WebAuthN
  3. Try to login
Expected behaviour

A popup should display, even though Dashlane is installed

Actual behaviour

No WebAuthN popup is displayed and the only way to log in is using a backup code.
Dashlane is a leading password manager. It has WebAuthN Support to store/use certificate accross devices.
Probably this is messing something up.

Research direction

Start with the WebAuthn flow in Challenge.vue and the call chain through main-challenge.js and startAuthentication.js, then reproduce the login with the Dashlane Chrome extension enabled. Inspect the reported null-message error and compare behavior without Dashlane. Done means the WebAuthn popup appears and login succeeds when Dashlane is installed.
