The following setup does not throw any errors, but the async function is not executed correctly because undefined is always returned. Is it possible to call an async functions inside the callback of clerkMiddleware?

I feel like this should be possible because NextJS allows for async middleware.

export default clerkMiddleware(async(auth, request) => {
  if (isProtectedRoute(request)) { auth().protect(); }

  await someAsyncFunction();
});
