The AirTag communication problem that I had with iOS 18.2 Beta 1 was resolved when I updated to the Beta 2. However, while trying to get it to work with the Beta 1 software, I reset the AirTag and then repaired it with my iPhone 15 Pro Max. That by itself didn't help but a short while later I updated to the Beta 2 version and it began working normally. Maybe if you try reseting the AirTag and use the iOS 18.2 Beta 2 software it will work.
