A miscellaneous error occurred (-6745)

When trying to connect my MacBook Air M2 2023 to my iPad 10th generation via Sidecar, I get the error message "A miscellaneous error occurred (-6745)" The operating systems are up to date, the devices can see each other, they just cannot connect.

iPad, iPadOS 17
