Authentication errors when using RESP 3 and health check

Version: 5.0.6

Platform: MacOS Sonoma Version 14.5

Description: When using the RESP 3 protocol with health check enabled for an auth enabled redis server, all commands return an authentication error (Both redis and hiredis, so maybe I am doing something wrong instead). It seems (from my "debugging") the issue stems from the PING command that is issued before the actual command is sent. I can confirm that if no health check time is set, the client works as expected. Also, if the protocol is set to 2, it works as expected. Sample provided below:

redis.conf

protected-mode yes
timeout 30
port 0
tls-port 6379
tls-cert-file /tls/redis.crt
tls-key-file /tls/redis.key
tls-ca-cert-file /tls/ca.crt
tls-auth-clients optional
daemonize no
loglevel debug
logfile ""
save ""
maxmemory-policy allkeys-lru
appendonly no
