Describe the Bug

When texts were selected and press delete (the key at the right end of top 2nd row, just beside +, beneath power button) trying to delete it won’t work, but fn-delete worked.

Tried this on original vscode and it worked, is it possible to have this fixed? Thanks.

Steps to Reproduce

using an apple silicon mac, select any text then press delete key to delete it, it won’t work, but press fn-delete works.

Expected Behavior

when pressing delete key the selected text should be deleted, as is in vscode itself.
