Automerge+required squash commits using git push options: fails to automatically merge

A specific combination of merge request settings causes failure to automerge, despite all checks succeeding. Specifically: if the project has 'squash commits on merge' set as required in the settings, and the automerge is enabled in the merge request, it fails with the following notification: 'This project requires squashing commits when merge requests are accepted. Try again.'
Disabling the automerge and merging using the 'merge' button which then appears works, but requires a manual step in a process (enabling automerge) that is designed to be automatic.
Screenshot (a 1-line change, in a single commit):
This merge request will hang until a user cancels the automerge and manually presses merge. The user has explicitly enabled automerge using the CLI push option merge_request.merge_when_pipeline_succeeds, yet manual action is still required to merge.
