nvm completion not loading properly

[mrmanc]

When using this plugin (installed using antigen), and setting export NVM_COMPLETION=true, I don’t get proper completion when I type nvm <tab>. I get path based completion suggestions instead.

Zsh version: zsh 5.8 (x86_64-apple-darwin21.0)
MacOS version: 12.0.1
Macbook M1 Pro

I dug around in the code, and found that when I run the _zsh_nvm_completion function manually from my prompt, completion works fine (click to watch below recording). What is weird is when I edited the file to check that function was running, and sourcing $NVM_DIR/bash_completion successfully, I could see that it was.

  [[ -r $NVM_DIR/bash_completion ]] && source $NVM_DIR/bash_completion && echo "Successfully sourced bash completion"

I took a look at $NVM_DIR/bash_completion to see what I could make out, and used set -x to get some debug. I can see that calling the function manually after opening a new shell seems to do a lot more. I’m not familiar enough with completion to understand where it’s going wrong. I can’t follow the complete:13 debug to see why nothing else runs. The call to complete on the last line of $NVM_DIR/bash_completion completes without error.

Here is the debug from opening a new shell:

+/Users/Mark.Crossfield/.nvm/bash_completion:6> command -v nvm

+complete:6> [[ -n '' ]]
+complete:8> [[ -n '' ]]
+complete:13> compdef '_bash_complete -o default -F __nvm' nvm

And here’s the debug from calling the _zsh_nvm_completion function for comparison:
