[BUG] DefaultAzureCredential VisualStudioCredential unable to retrieve an access token.

Library name and version

Azure.Identity.DefaultAzureCredential

Describe the bug

I am attempting to authenticate to Azure using the DefaultAzureCredential in my program. However, after I create the DefaultAzureCredential attempt to use it, I receive an error stating that the VisualStudioCredential.GetToken was unable to retrieve an access token.

var options = new DefaultAzureCredentialOptions()
{
    ExcludeAzureCliCredential = true,
    ExcludeAzurePowerShellCredential = true,
    ExcludeEnvironmentCredential = true,
    ExcludeInteractiveBrowserCredential = true,
    ExcludeManagedIdentityCredential = true,
    ExcludeSharedTokenCacheCredential = true,
    ExcludeVisualStudioCodeCredential = true,
    ExcludeVisualStudioCredential = false
};

var cred = new DefaultAzureCredential(options);

When I attempt to actually use the token, I receive this exception:

Azure-Identity: VisualStudioCredential.GetToken was unable to retrieve an access token. Scopes: [ user_impersonation ] 
ParentRequestId: <id> Exception: Azure.Identity.CredentialUnavailableException (0x80131500):

has failed with unexpected error: TS003: Error, TS007: resource parameter must be a URI or a GUID.
