I just recently purchased a PS5 and set up Minecraft on it. I previously ran Minecraft on Xbox and Nintendo Switch without any problems.
After starting the game on the PS5, I am asked to sign in and everything works correctly. After the game is closed and then opened again, I am asked to sign in again every single time. This account has never signed in on a Playstation before. Other family members who already have logged into their Xbox accounts through their PS5 do not have any problems.
Another family member created a new xbox account and a new PS account and logged in to Minecraft, but had the same problem after the game was closed again and reopened.

Having same issue.
Updated Game, Signed in via remote connect link. Played Fine, Checked World Save Sync. didn't work.
Updated Ps4 version, played saves (to make sure they got update incase this was sync issue with Ps5)
Restarted Ps5 version, Can not click Setting, it just says "Sign in to Playstation Network"
Clicking it tries to sign into MS (even thou it says PSN) PSN is 100% signed in.
Clicking "Play Preview" ask to sign into MS, then PSN and ask to play offline.
6.3Mb game took a good min to load.
Restarted ps5, same results.
Turned it off and back on. Same results.
Ask to sign in PSN, Tris to sign in PSN does nothing.
I see there have been more issues created that duplicate this bug. I am still continuously seeing this being a problem. Is there anything other information I, or others, can provide that would help you be able to resolve this? Is this being actively looked at? Thanks
