Remember Me in Devise fails to Login User

Question

If I don't use remember_me option, it works perfectly fine. The app flows as expected.

However, if I check remember_me, it will login in as expected, redirect me to a protected page, which will then redirect me back to the sign_in page (Since I use before_action :authenticate_user!. One other thing that user_signed_in? will retrun false as well).

I am just so confused, could be due to timezone issues? Or possibly some other misconfiguration?

UPDATE: Here is my devise config (removed all the comments)

Devise.setup do |config|
  config.mailer_sender = '[email protected]'

  require 'devise/orm/active_record'

  config.case_insensitive_keys = [:email]

  config.strip_whitespace_keys = [:email]

  config.skip_session_storage = [:http_auth]

  config.stretches = Rails.env.test? ? 1 : 12

  config.reconfirmable = true

  config.remember_for = 2.weeks

  config.expire_all_remember_me_on_sign_out = true

  config.password_length = 6..128

  config.email_regexp = /\A[^@\s]+@[^@\s]+\z/

  config.reset_password_within = 6.hours

  config.sign_out_via = :get

  config.navigational_formats = ['*/*', :html, :turbo_stream]

  config.responder.error_status = :unprocessable_entity
  config.responder.redirect_status = :see_other
end

The sessions_controller is just empty. I didn't override anything.

class Users::SessionsController < Devise::SessionsController
  # before_action :configure_sign_in_params, only: [:create]

  # GET /resource/sign_in
  # def new
  #   super
  # end

  # POST /resource/sign_in
  # def create
  #   super
  # end

  # DELETE /resource/sign_out
  # def destroy
  #   super
  # end

  # protected

  # If you have extra params to permit, append them to the sanitizer.
  # def configure_sign_in_params
  #   devise_parameter_sanitizer.permit(:sign_in, keys: [:attribute])
  # end
end

The only changes I made were to registrations_controller.

# frozen_string_literal: true

class Users::RegistrationsController < Devise::RegistrationsController
  # before_action :configure_sign_up_params, only: [:create]
  before_action :configure_account_update_params, only: [:update]

  # GET /resource/sign_up
  # def new
  #   super
  # end

  # POST /resource
  # def create
  #   super
  # end

  # GET /resource/edit
  # def edit
  #   super
  # end

  # PUT /resource
  # def update
  #   super
  # end

  # DELETE /resource
  # def destroy
  #   super
  # end

  # GET /resource/cancel
  # Forces the session data which is usually expired after sign
  # in to be expired now. This is useful if the user wants to
  # cancel oauth signing in/up in the middle of the process,
  # removing all OAuth session data.
  # def cancel
  #   super
  # end

  protected

  # If you have extra params to permit, append them to the sanitizer.
  # def configure_sign_up_params
  #   devise_parameter_sanitizer.permit(:sign_up, keys: [:attribute])
  # end

  # If you have extra params to permit, append them to the sanitizer.
  def configure_account_update_params
    devise_parameter_sanitizer.permit(:account_update, keys: [:name])
  end

  def after_update_path_for(resource)
    edit_user_registration_path(resource)
  end

  # The path used after sign up for inactive accounts.
  # def after_inactive_sign_up_path_for(resource)
  #   super(resource)
  # end
end
