Side panel debug step buttons (e.g., Step Into, Step Over) remain disabled after starting a debug session and only activate after closing and reopening the panel

Describe the Bug

Whenever I run a project in debug mode, the side panel steps button (Step Over, Step Into, etc) doesn’t automatically update, so I can’t press Step Into or whatever; it stays disabled until I close and reopen the side panel.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Set a breakpoint somewhere in your project
  2. Run the project in debug mode
  3. When the breakpoint is reached, check the debugger buttons (disabled/not clickable).
  4. Toggle the side panel
  5. Check the debugger buttons, they should now be enabled

Expected Behavior

The debugger buttons should automatically get updated when the breakpoint is reached without having to close and open the side panel.
