WiFi Settings Not Being Set using Raspberry Pi Imager #853

I am attempting to install OctoPi 1.0.0 with OctoPrint 1.11.0 (build 20250422094030) from the Raspberry Pi Imager, and the WiFi is not connecting. If I use the typical Raspberry Pi (Bookworm) or RetroPie images, the WiFi is set up correctly; so it must be something that OctoPi is doing differently.

I have attempted to set up the octopi-wpa-supplicant.txt manually, and I have attempted changing the file name to the standard wpa_supplicant.txt to no avail. I have compared the firstrun.sh between bookworm and OctoPi, and they are identical. I have also removed the octopi-wpa-supplicant.txt.

It took the StackOverflow advice of adding "scan_ssid=1" and changing my country to US in the wpa_supplicant.conf. It seems that these values were not respected from the Raspberry Pi Imager.
