User vagrant cannot SSH into guest on vagrant up to configure & provision

Hi, I'm new to using Parallels (just purchased earlier today), but I'm fairly proficient at using Vagrant with VirtualBox on my Linux PC. I intend to use Parallels as the provider for my Vagrant development environment on my M1 Macbook Air.
After creating a barebones Vagrantfile (only basic machine configurations and networking, no provisioning), I tried to bring it up. But ran into the following problem with SSH:
jyscao@Jethros-MacBook-Air titan-pool-vagrant % vagrant up [284/1891]

Timed out while waiting for the machine to boot. This means that
Vagrant was unable to communicate with the guest machine within
the configured ("config.vm.boot_timeout" value) time period.
If you look above, you should be able to see the error(s) that
Vagrant had when attempting to connect to the machine. These errors
are usually good hints as to what may be wrong.
If you're using a custom box, make sure that networking is properly
working and you're able to connect to the machine. It is a common
problem that networking isn't setup properly in these boxes.
Verify that authentication configurations are also setup properly,
as well.
If the box appears to be booting properly, you may want to increase
the timeout ("config.vm.boot_timeout") value.
This looks similar to the closed issue #342, but I don't believe my guest is conflicting with any other hosts on my bridged network 10.211.55.0/24. Though I followed @legal90's suggestion in that thread, and limited the assignable range in Parallels' preferences, such that my vagrant ssh-config is now the following:
Host titan-pool
HostName 10.211.55.101
User vagrant
Port 22
UserKnownHostsFile /dev/null
StrictHostKeyChecking no
PasswordAuthentication no
IdentityFile /Users/jyscao/.vagrant.d/insecure_private_key
IdentitiesOnly yes
LogLevel FATAL
Furthermore, I am able to vagrant ssh into the guest after the initial vagrant up times out, which means I do have a minimally usable vagrant box. However none of the configurations (hostname, additional network interface, hosts, etc.) in my Vagrantfile were applied; and of course I won't be able to use any provisioning scripts without the vagrant user being able to access SSH.
I'm not sure if this is a user error on my part. Or perhaps it's a limitation due to the relative newness of the M1 processor, and its lack of support for prlctl as mentioned in #404.
Would appreciate if anyone here can point me in the right direction.
Actually the packager of the box I'm using was aware of this issue (it's a bug in the most recent version of Parallels), and also provided a workaround to it. See this issue thread.
In short, add prl.customize ["set", :id, "--device-del", "cdrom0" ] to the Parallels config block in your Vagrantfile
same error ，how to solve？
