Running the efibootmgr -v or --verbose command on Tumbleweed fails as shown

Tumbleweed:/home/stuart # efibootmgr -v
BootCurrent: 0000
Timeout: 1 seconds
BootOrder: 0000,0001,0002,0003
efibootmgr: Could not parse device path: No such file or directory
Boot0000* opensuseTumbleweed:/home/stuart # 

if I remove the -v this outputs 

Tumbleweed:/home/stuart # efibootmgr
BootCurrent: 0000

however when I boot the same system from Leap (dual boot) it does work which
uses version 0.6.0 as shown

Leap4main:/home/stuart # efibootmgr -v

This issue is 100% repeatable on both my AMD desktop and Intel Laptops using
Tumbleweed.
