Hi Antoine

I have the same problem with defaults parameters (sha1)
The problem is only while scanning, if I copy and paste the secret key manually 
in the apps, ALL apps are working.

I am actually testing Guacamole 1.5.3 on 2 systems with the same problem:
Ubuntu 22.0.4 host install from official docs
Debian 12 using the script https://github.com/itiligent/Guacamole-Install
I am also trying it on Alpine with docker, but I don’t understand how to right 
popolate the guacamole.properties with docker-compose (especially extensions).
Next step is to test with Tomcat8.      

The production system (1.1.0) has been working since 2020 with about 500 users.
I can’t  migrate to the new and force people to use differents totp apps or 
telling them to copy 56 chars :)

Giacomo
