Undefined user object from getAuth()

[teddybee]

Describe the bug
I am using t3-app and I would like to check the user's role in the trpc`s middleware.
I added an auth object this way

const auth = getAuth(opts.req as RequestLike);

Unfortunately the user in the auth object is undefined. Is it a bug, or I need some additional coding to get the user object and role in privateMetadata?
Is it the same issue in the next middleware, in the withClerkMiddleware() function.

const { user, userId,  } = getAuth(request);   

User object is undefined.

To Reproduce

Expected behavior
User object is populated.
