Brave on Linux will not sync passwords anymore

Description of the issue:
Only bookmarks are syncing

Brave will not sync passwords. Sync everything is checked, bookmarks are synced. Passwords and extensions are not.

Steps to Reproduce (add as many as necessary): 1. 2. 3.

I purged brave and then reinstalled, entered my sync code, enabled sync everything. Only bookmarks are syncing. I also went to brave internals to check and it says that password syncing is enabled as well as extensions.

Reproduces how often:
Simply doesn’t work for me

Brave Version(See the About Brave page in the main menu):
1Brave version 1.73.101 Chromium 131.0.6778.139

Type of devices currently running on the Sync chain in question:

Two Android devices, One windows desktop running Windows 10, and two Linux machines.

Additional Information:

I’ve logged out and logged in, turned off and turned on sync everything, gone to the brave sync internals page, nothing I do is working.

I hope this helps somebody else and that it can be tested, but at this point I have no choice but to revert to Chrome on all my devices.
