Anyone using auth.api in a server action with useActionState?

I'm having trouble getting the session to update, have followed the docs to use the

nextCookies()

nextCookies()

plugin but the example server action doesn't return anything so I'm not really sure how that's meant to work.

Maybe I'm holding it wrong, but my current setup is using a server action with

useActionState

useActionState

on my sign in form so that I can display errors.

The server action calls

auth.api.signInEmail

auth.api.signInEmail

and redirects on success, or returns errors to the action state for me to display in the form.

My UI doesn't update to replace the "Sign Up"/"Sign In" buttons with the "Sign Out" button as I would expect, so I suspect the cookies aren't being set?
