Why am I not getting any CPU WU's on my Apple Silicon Mac, despite all 4 projects applications having Apple Silicon/ARM Mac support?

Yes, I have this enabled in my settings, and I am getting WU's on my Windows PC with a 5700X CPU and RTX 3060 GPU.

I have the same problem. Server status listed WUs, all applications selected, but did not get any tasks.

Update:

Now getting 10 concurrent WU's on my base M4 Mac mini, 1 for each of my CPU 10 CPU cores.

However, 4 of the tasks are running through Rosetta 2, and the other 6 natively, like as if the 4 performance cores are running Intel Mac WU's, and the 6 Efficiency cores are running native WU's.

Please, if possible, fix this, so Apple Silicon Macs are only downloading native WU's, and not Intel Mac WU's.

Also, how long/how many points before my Apple Silicon Mac with the M4 chip will show up in "CPU models" and MacOS will be added to the "Computer types" list?

Even on my MacBook Air Late 2020, which is set to process only half a day's worth of stock, I received 4 work units.
But the crunching has finished, and now I'm just waiting for the parent bird to drop some food.
