"Select Interpreter" leads to flickering command prompt and repeating same command

See original GitHub issue

Testing #19550

rm my instance of Python that was shown through Python: Select Interpreter
Reload VS Code
Use run button to run a simple Python app, get expected case 1 error message
Click button in case 1 notification to Select Interpreter
The same command is presented many times, and Enter interpreter path is flickering

I already tested cases 2 and 3 (using a dev container with Python installed), and they worked as expected. I’m only seeing this repeating and flickering behavior in case 1. Please let me know if I’m misunderstanding something.
