Zstandard could not be imported. Running without .conda support

I am running an install of miniconda on an M1 Mac that was installed via brew. The environment seems to work just find, but when running conda env list, I get the following warnings before it lists the environments.

/opt/homebrew/Caskroom/miniconda/base/lib/python3.12/site-packages/conda_package_streaming/package_streaming.py:25: UserWarning: zstandard could not be imported. Running without .conda support.
  warnings.warn("zstandard could not be imported. Running without .conda support.")
/opt/homebrew/Caskroom/miniconda/base/lib/python3.12/site-packages/conda_package_handling/api.py:29: UserWarning: Install zstandard Python bindings for .conda support
  _warnings.warn("Install zstandard Python bindings for .conda support")

I have updated the zstandard modules as well as conda and the conda. I could not find any recent information on these warnings that were relevant.

Type conda list -n base to see what’s going on with zstandard and zstd packages. Report the output here.
