I see the same issue, I get only a password prompt.  This is what I get
on trying your suggestion above.

Contacting host: www.google.com:443
auth-source-search: found 1 results (max 1) matching (:max 1 :host "www.google.com:443" :port "https")
auth-source-search: found 1 CACHED results matching (:max 1 :host "www.google.com:443" :port "https")
#<buffer  *http www.google.com:443*-771021>

I'm not sure from this if my netrc is being used.  My netrc also has the
password for my Google account, if it is being used should I even get a
password prompt?

Cheers,
