Description

Hi, I installed the r-quarto package in a Conda environment. I can activate and successfully render the documents when I activate the environment. I used which quarto to find the path of quarto in this environment, and then set quarto.path in my settings.json to the same location with an absolute path, and reloaded the window.
When I try to render with "Ctrl-Shift-K" in VScode, I still receive a "please install the Quarto CLI" message.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue by installing r-quarto in Conda, setting quarto.path in settings.json, and invoking the Ctrl-Shift-K rendering shortcut in VS Code. Inspect the extension's handling of the configured Quarto CLI path; done means the shortcut detects that executable and renders without the install prompt.
