Cannot sign in with google on build version of android only

I'm using this guide on how to compile quasar capacitor apps for the play store. I cannot sign in with google in the build version of the android app, even after signing the apk as per the instructions.

When I try to sign in with google in the build version the dialog opens up, i can tap on my google account, the dialog closes and nothing happens. I cannot remote inspect the build version with chrome to get any logs (webview doesn't appear in remote debug with build version). The best I can do for logs is the logcat in Android Studio when running the app.

This is the only relevant error message I see. The app is being signed and the signing key is in my google play console. But I am fairly sure this is a signing issue since the debug version on android works perfectly.

If you would like to try the app for yourself you can find it on google play store. Once downloaded click profile on bottom right and try to sign in with google.
