Same setup for Launch Firefox and Launch Chrome. Chrome stops on breakpoint, Firefox doesn't.

[apotenza92]

Hi all. I have essentially the same launch config for Firefox and Chrome with a breakpoint set. Chrome does the expected and throws me back to VS Code where I can step through the code. Firefox loads the page completely without hitting the breakpoint. The breakpoint shows up as a proper bound red dot for both. Nothing is showing up in my console log to indicate why this could be happening.

I outputted the logs to a file:
