Can't set existing venv as kernel

[jaymc-arg]

I'm trying to set a venv in vsocode as always, but I do not see them any more listed between the venvs I'been using.

If I wanted to use an existing environment I entered the interpreter path and the venv appeared with it's name as an option. Now when I do select the specified python venv, a new .venv folder is created in the directory workspace with as if I wanted to create a new environment and it's set as active so I can never choose the env I want to.

Jupyter extension v2024.9.1
VSCode v2024.9.1

Is this happening to anyone?

EDIT:
Found this workarround , but I think this is maybe an issue.
