Two-factor with domain mapping – bug?

I am in a scenario where I continually get a “request for email code” from 2-fac when trying to edit my website.

I am using the following setup:

1) a domain #1, mynewelectionswebsite.wpcomstaging.com, hosted and managed on WordPress.com
2) a domain #2, https://benbregmanselections.com/, hosted on Bluehost
3) Domain #2 redirects to Domain #1, and on WordPress.com I’ve set Domain #2 as the Primary domain (so that all visitors see benbregmanselections.com in their browser but get content build on the WordPress.com-hosted site)
4) Domain #1 has 2-fac plugin installed, with the email code setting. (It is also using Jetpack, if that is helpful)

Now, the unexpected behavior: Every-time I try to edit a page via WordPress.com, I need a new 2-fac code. I visit WordPress.com -> Find a page in the site list -> Tap edit. I am prompted to visit my email for a code each time. (If it is helpful info, the URL i see includes a bit “action=jetpack-sso”)

This behavior only happens if I try to edit from WordPress.com. For example, if I simply navigate directly to https://benbregmanselections.com/wp-admin/ – I am not prompted for 2-fac. But if I ever try edit via the WordPress.com pagelist, my 2-fac “resets” and I need an email again.

Any thoughts on this combination of tools? (WordPress.com, Jetpack, Domain redirection, 2-fac.) Is there an additional piece of setup I’m missing or is this setup incompatible?… Or, maybe I need to be asking for insight from WordPress.com.
