No saved passwords when running Chrome remotely

I use Ubuntu 23.10. I usually use Google Chrome on my desktop PC, and I have my passwords saved in Google Password Manager. This works fine. But when I login remotely from my laptop (also running Ubuntu) the button for Google Password Manager shows an empty password list.

Why is that? Is there any way to see my passwords when I login remotely?

By logging in remotely, I mean this:

  • On my laptop, in the Bash shell, I run ssh -X user@host.
  • Then at the Bash prompt (belonging to the desktop PC I’ve logged into), I run google-chrome.
