Description

Hi all. I have essentially the same launch config for Firefox and Chrome with a breakpoint set. Chrome does the expected and throws me back to VS Code where I can step through the code. Firefox loads the page completely without hitting the breakpoint. The breakpoint shows up as a proper bound red dot for both. Nothing is showing up in my console log to indicate why this could be happening.

Research direction

No source file, test, or entry point is named. Start by reproducing the comparison with the Firefox and Chrome launch configurations and inspect the bound breakpoint behavior; done means Firefox pauses at the breakpoint and allows stepping, or the failure has a clear diagnostic.
