KeePassXC 2.7.0 Released
Looks like a known issue.
https://github.com/keepassxreboot/keepassxc/issues/2281
I'm considering adding support for keepassxc in tessen but autotype works only on wlroots based compositors like sway right now.

Some tiny personal programs I've written
This may not be as impressive but I wrote a script to eliminate one of the primary roadblocks I faced when I moved to Wayland on my Linux desktop — a script to copy and autotype password store amd gopass data, kinda like rofi-pass

tessen v2 released: support for gopass added
tessen is a bash script to autotype and copy password store data on wayland compositors. The latest release of tessen adds support for gopass as well, although parsing YAML files isn't supported. If gopass files use the same format mentioned here, tessen should work fine.

Wayland native desktop launcher with password-store support?
I'd be willing to package it for Void Linux but I don't really have any experience with how Void Linux packages work. tessen is just a shell script so you can download it and place it in your $PATH and use it if you want.

Fuzzel 1.7 was released with lots of improvements and fixes
As I've mentioned in the isse tracker here, the only thing that's missing from fuzzel is support for using a configuration file. If it gets that, it would replace every other launcher and dmenu program on Wayland for me and would also allow me to go ahead and brand fuzzel as the default dmenu backend for tessen.

tessen v1.2.1 released: autotype and copy password store data on Wayland, like rofi-pass
I made this post a few weeks ago about tessen's initial release. Since then, I've added a few features that might've prevented rofi-pass users from switching to Wayland based compositors (I was one of them).

(Help) How to use wtype?
I ran into this problem as well when making tessen. fzf doesn't have a GUI like rofi, bemenu, and wofi do, so you can't use fzf to type in data in anything else besides the terminal in which it was opened, at least not without resorting to ugly hacks (which is what the swaymsg window move method is).

tessen: autotype and copy password-store data on Wayland, like rofi-pass
I've also made a pass extension called pass-tessen that uses fzf to only copy data and is meant to be used inside a terminal. It can work on both Xorg and Wayland. Unlike pass-clip, it can copy passwords as well as metadata (key-value pairs) from pass. It can also show a preview of your password store data before you copy it.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing tessen and pass-clip you can also consider the following projects:
bemenu - Dynamic menu library and client program inspired by dmenu
rofi-pass - rofi frontend for pass
rofi - Rofi: A window switcher, run dialog and dmenu replacement - fork with wayland support
wtype - xdotool type for wayland
pass-grave - An extension for pass (the standard Unix password manager) to easily hide the metadata of the password store
rofi-emoji - Emoji selector plugin for Rofi
pass-tessen - fuzzy data selection and copy-paste from password store
