layout-ncol not working in beamer

Bug description

MWE adapted from the block-layout section of the docs:

---
title: "bug"
format: beamer
---

## test

Taken from <https://quarto.org/docs/authoring/figures.html#block-layout>

::: {layout-ncol=2}
### List One

- Item A
- Item B
- Item C

### List Two

- Item X
- Item Y
- Item Z
:::

When I compile the above minimal example, I get an error from tex:

updating tlmgr

updating existing packages

compilation failed- error
LaTeX Error: \begin{beamercolorbox} on input line 223 ended by \end{minipage}
.

See the LaTeX manual or LaTeX Companion for explanation.
Type  H <return>  for immediate help.
 ...                                              
                                                  
l.223 \end{frame}

but when I change it to "format: pdf" everything compiles okay. Earlier layout examples on that documentation (for aligning images) work fine in beamer. What's up?

I see elsewhere in the quarto docs an alternative way for making multiple columns, https://quarto.org/docs/presentations/beamer.html#multiple-columns but there is a certain attraction to the shorter form in this MWE.
