Pressure sensitivity issue when using Photoshop with Apple Sidecar.

Question

As shown in the attached video, pressure sensitivity works fine, but there is a bug where pressure is not applied at the very moment I start drawing a line with the Apple Pencil.

Even after restarting both Photoshop and Sidecar, the issue persists. Since other third-party drawing applications work correctly, it seems to be a problem related to Photoshop.

Is there a way to resolve this?

Photoshop Version : 26.1.0
Platform : macOS Sequoia 15.1.1, iPadOS 18.1.1

@precise_future6743 one of my students had this an issue, but it was in Illsutrator where you had to change the brush tip. In Photoshop, I believe it's in Brush Settings. I am not using the 'Apple Pencil' at the moment, but you could probably figure which settings works better for you.
