shinyFeedback not working with shinyWidgets' autonumericInput function

I am trying to implement feedback for users of my app using shinyFeedback. I use custom currency formatting of numeric inputs from shinyWidgets. These two do not seem to work together. Below is a reprex showing shinyFeedback working correctly with numericInput, but not working with autonumericInput.

Is there any trick to make these two work together?

undesired behaviour

library(shiny)
library(shinyWidgets)
library(shinyFeedback)

ui <- fluidPage(
  useShinyFeedback(),
  numericInput(
    "numeric_input", "numeric_input",
    value = 1e6, min = -Inf, max = Inf
  ),
  autonumericInput(
    "autonumeric_input", "autonumeric_input",
    value = 1e6, currencySymbol = "€", currencySymbolPlacement = "p", decimalPlaces = 0, digitGroupSeparator = " "
  ),
)

server <- function(input, output, session) {

  observeEvent(input$numeric_input, {
    feedbackWarning("numeric_input", show = input$numeric_input >= 0, text = "Hello numeric_input")
  })
  
  observeEvent(input$autonumeric_input, {
    feedbackWarning("autonumeric_input", show = input$autonumeric_input >= 0, text = "Hello autonumeric_input")
  })

}
