Why can't I add widgets on third-party launchers with Android 12

I just got a Zenfone 8, and I updated it to Android 12 (UL-I006D-ASUS-31.1010.0410.43-1.1.25-2202-user.zip). I installed Nova Launcher, and I cannot widgets.

Looking at Nova's logs, I see:
java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to read from field 'com.android.server.appwidget.AppWidgetServiceImpl$ProviderId com.android.server.appwidget.AppWidgetServiceImpl$Provider.id' on a null object reference
So, it seems ASUS's Android 12 build is missing something from its settings app.
Does anyone else have an issue adding widgets? I tried Lawnchair and have the same issue. ASUS Launcher obviously works fine.
I should probably note that my phone is rooted, but that shouldn't matter, right?

Works fine in my case. Nova also.

Yeah, it seems to just be an issue for me. Maybe I did something wrong when I installed the Android 12 update...

Same here. Unable to add almost all kind of widget on 3rd party launcher. Been trying on few launchers and all return with same problem.

I've found I'm not the only one with this issue, but I'm not sure what's going on. I am waiting for ASUS to release an update (a new version of Android 12) that fixes this.
