attr_encrypted gem must specify an iv - Ruby on Rails

I'm trying to encrypt two columns on my User model in Ruby on Rails. I have already successfully encrypted 6 other columns on a different table but this time I am getting the error must specify an iv only on the User table.

I am using the devise gem for authentication.

Here is my original migration to add the columns:

class AddPushNotificationColumnsToUser < ActiveRecord::Migration[5.1]
  def change
    add_column :users, :endpoint, :string
    add_column :users, :expiration_time, :string
    add_column :users, :encrypted_p256dh, :string
    add_column :users, :encrypted_auth, :string

    add_column :users, :encrypted_p256dh_iv, :string
    add_column :users, :encrypted_auth_iv, :string
  end
end

My Model:

attr_encrypted :p256dh, key: Rails.application.secrets.db_encryption_key
attr_encrypted :auth, key: Rails.application.secrets.db_encryption_key

When I call User.first.p256dh or User.first.auth I get the error:must specify an iv

Any help would be appreciated.
