Laravel 5.2 Auth with TwigBridge Session store not set

As mentioned in the title I'm using Laravel 5.2 and I've set up TwigBridge so I can use twig for my views. I'm just using the basic Auth package that comes with Laravel. The problem is when I use twig templates I get the following error:

An exception has been thrown during the rendering of a template ("Session store not set on request.") in "...resources/views/auth/register.twig" at line 17.

This is pointing to a use of the {{ old('name') }} call. I've tried switching it to input_old as I think TwigBridge prefers that, but that didn't help. If I use the blade template there's no problem though. I'm not doing anything special either. I just rename the blade template so it isn't called, and my register twig template is called instead since it uses the name register.
