.venv can't be resolved as default interpreter path, only venv can

[vorpal56]

Type: Bug

Already included interpreter path and its valid, but keeps saying invalid python interpreter path.
It also keeps resolving to venv instead of .venv for some reason

related: #20644

Behaviour

Python extension keeps complaining that "An invalid Python interpreter is selected"

Steps to reproduce:

1. fresh venv called .venv

python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate && poetry sync

2. Ran Python: Clear Workspace Interpreter Setting
3. Set my .vscode/settings.json with:

"python.defaultInterpreterPath": "${workspaceFolder}/.venv/bin/python",

4. Ran Developer: Reload Window
5. Still complains "An invalid Python interpreter is selected"

Diagnostic data

NOTE: The logs are stripped because it keeps old output even if I clear it

Output for Python in the Output panel (View→Output, change the drop-down the upper-right of the Output panel to Python)

[vorpal56]

symlinking it (ln -s .venv venv) makes it work because it keeps trying to scan for venv, but it doesn't scan .venv. how do I fix this without the symlink?

[anthonykim1]

Did you mean to this perfmgt/venv as your interpreter?

Would you get better luck if you select the interpreter with the command palette? (Say if you were to click the green button)

[vorpal56]

Did you mean to this perfmgt/venv as your interpreter

No, I don't have a perfmgmt/venv. The interpreter I select from is perfmgmt/.venv

Would you get better luck if you select the interpreter with the command palette? (Say if you were to click the green button)

Yes I do when I select perfmgmt/.venv in the command palette, but I need to keep specifying the interpreter every time the project opens.
