gs4_auth thinks it is running in a non-interactive session but is being run in RStudio

I'm trying to authorize using gs4_auth(cache = FALSE), however I get the error below when running the command in RStudio. I'm expecting to go through the browser dance, but this doesn't happen, even though I'm running this interactiely in RStudio.

Running on Apple M1 silicon Ventura 13.4.1, R v4.3.1, RStudio Version 2023.09.1+494, and using renv.

ℹ Are you running googlesheets4 in a non-interactive session? Consider:
• Call `gs4_deauth()` to prevent the attempt to get credentials.
• Call `gs4_auth()` directly with all necessary specifics.
ℹ See gargle's "Non-interactive auth" vignette for more details:

Backtrace:

If I run:

library(googlesheets4)
gs4_auth(cache = FALSE)

I am taken to the browser and auth proceeds as normal. So we're going to need more details to get anywhere. Here are my current package versions, for comparison with yours:
