fprint authentication for ThinkPad P14s

Hello, I am currently trying to setup fingerprint authentication for my system.

First of all some specs:
ThinkPad P14s AMD GEN 2
Synaptics, Inc. Prometheus MIS Touch Fingerprint Reader
5.16.10-arch1-1

System is up to date.

I have patched slock successfully with the https://tools.suckless.org/slock/patches/pam_auth/ patch and edited my config.h accordingly.
I was also able to register my fingerprint, I check that with fprintd-verify.

I have read the https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Fprint wiki page and tried to edit my /etc/pam.d/ files accordingly.

The problem which I am facing is, that although I edited the files in /etc/pam.d/ accordingly, I cannot authenticate with my fingerprint. Neither via tty login, nor with slock.

Has anyone got that working and can give me some hints, about how I would set this up?

Greetings and many thanks!
