Import passwords from Brave not working

I'm moving from Brave to Firefox Developer, and trying to import all data from Brave... especially passwords.

When I import from Safari, Chrome, MS Edge I get a Mac dialogue box asking for my Mac password, and then all the data is imported correctly.

When I try the same with Brave, there is no Mac dialogue box, and the import process just says it was successful - but no passwords are imported at all.

I didn't find any settings in Brave saying that I had to allow password export or anything like that.

Is this a bug? and is there a workaround? (because I really don't want to have to input all those passwords for so many sites since moving to Brave!)
