Header format error in ivar filtervariants

[fshepherd13]

Describe the bug
ivar filtervariants produces header format warning in version 1.4 that is not reproducible in older versions of ivar.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

#Version 1.3.1
module load mamba
mamba create -n ivar_1.3.1 -c bioconda ivar==1.3.1
conda activate ivar_1.3.1

samtools mpileup -A -d 0 -Q 0 sample_a.bam | ivar variants -p test_a -t 0.03 -r AJ30_5_2_SI_MKV1_WG.fa -g AJ30_5_2_SI_MKV1_WG.gff
samtools mpileup -A -d 0 -Q 0 sample_b.bam | ivar variants -p test_b -t 0.03 -r AJ30_5_2_SI_MKV1_WG.fa -g AJ30_5_2_SI_MKV1_WG.gff

ivar filtervariants -p test.filtered test_a.tsv test_b.tsv

This works as expected (this is the version I had been using last).

But if I upgrade to the latest version:

#Version 1.4.2
mamba create -n ivar_1.4.2
conda activate ivar_1.4.2
mamba install ivar==1.4.2 -c defaults -c bioconda -c conda-forge

samtools mpileup -A -d 0 -Q 0 sample_a.bam | ivar variants -p test_a -t 0.03 -r AJ30_5_2_SI_MKV1_WG.fa -g AJ30_5_2_SI_MKV1_WG.gff
samtools mpileup -A -d 0 -Q 0 sample_b.bam | ivar variants -p test_b -t 0.03 -r AJ30_5_2_SI_MKV1_WG.fa -g AJ30_5_2_SI_MKV1_WG.gff
ivar filtervariants -p test.filtered test_a.tsv test_b.tsv

An error reads:

Header format of test_a.tsv did not match! Please use files generated using "ivar variants" command.
Header format of test_b.tsv did not match! Please use files generated using "ivar variants" command.

The resulting filtered tsv file is empty.

I attached sample bam files and reference files to reproduce the issue. Am I missing something obvious here? Thanks in advance!
