Unable to switch users on macbook sequoia 15.6

When I try to switch user it doesn't let me choose other user on login screen. When I click on the second user it momentarily switches back on the first user. Only if first user logs out second can log in. Touch ID just useless in this scenario. After log out / restart it works fine for a while and then it doesnt.

User fast switching is enabled.

Thank you

Mine works fine.

What happens if you do a safe re-start? This bypasses certain potentially disruptive processes, and it often helps. Safe Mode is different for different computers, so see this:

Thanks. Restarts helps, but the problem comes back after a while, unfortunately. Quite frustrating having to restart if you want to switch users.
