IntelliSense provided by this extension no longer work when the workspace includes `build.gradle`

My team is developing in an Nx monorepo with VS Code where apps and libraries are listed in the folder apps/ and libs. Some of our apps and libs are in Java. We installed the Extension Pack for Java, which include this extension (Language Support for Java(TM) by Red Hat). Java projects are built with either Maven or Gradle. In this context, this VS Code extension works great as language support for Java. For example, IntelliSense works properly in VS Code for Java files.

I observed that this extension breaks when placing the file build.gradle in the workspace root folder. By breaking, I mean that IntelliSense is no longer working. See this issue for more detailed information and logs. The issue is related to the presence of the file build.gradle as an empty file still breaks the language support. Having a workspace-level build.gradle is a standard for multi-project build.

The expected behavior is that this VS Code extension should work fine in the context of multi-project build with Gradle.

Environment

• Operating System: linux x64 (Debian 11)
• JDK version: 17.0.4
• Visual Studio Code version: 1.71.2
• Java extension version: 1.10.0

Steps To Reproduce

1. Clone this repo: https://github.com/Sage-Bionetworks/challenge-registry.git
2. Checkout the commit 4e63ff1e150337882b680f05bf25c81bffa0fdfc
3. Follow the README to setup the project
4. Open a .java file > IntelliSense does not work
5. Delete the file build.gradle
6. Repeat Steps 3
7. Open a .java file > IntelliSense works

Detailed logs can be found here.

Current Result

IntelliSense does not work in Java files. For example, no tooltip is displayed in VS Code when hovering on an import statement.

Expected Result

IntelliSense should work in Java files.
