Kube context cannot be changed and is not taken into account when Deploying to Kubernetes, new record is not propagated into kube-context in status bar

Bug description

I need to restart the podman desktop (or reenable kube context extension) in order to get a new kube context record in.

Moreover, I cannot switch between different contexts. Also, current kube-context is not applied when I tried to deploy to kubernetes.

Operating system

Windows 10

Installation Method

Other

Version

1.4.0

Steps to reproduce

1. rm -rf ~/.kube
2. Start podman desktop
3. Install Kind
4. Create kind cluster
5. ASSERT: kube-context is automatically updated when I create new resource
   Actual result: no kube-context is present upon creation. I need to restart OR manually disable-enable kube-context extension

Relevant log output

No response

Additional context

No response

A little workaround: Restart podman desktop (do not forget to enable close on exit in preferences).

Could be fixed with #6406.

It seems fixed, I cannot replicate any of the issues above after starting without ~/.kube folder and starting OpenShift Local. The context status shows up and everything works as expected.
