Issue with Syntax Highlighting and File Icons Disappearing after Extension Installation

[johnny-kc-wu]

I've set up code-server as a Docker container on my Synology NAS, using Tailscale for VPN and reverse proxy. Initially, everything worked well. However, after adding some extensions and reloading the browser, the syntax highlighting and file icons vanished. This even caused the IDE to struggle with identifying document types.

Here's a snippet from my docker-compose.yaml:

services:
  vscs-johnny:
    image: codercom/code-server:latest
    container_name: vscode-johnny
    restart: always
    expose:
      - 8080
      - 8887
      - 8888
    ports:
      - 16880:8080
      - 8887:8887
      - 8888:8888
    user: 1026:100
    environment:
      - TZ=Asia/Japan
    volumes:
      - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
      - /volume1/homes/user123:/home/coder/.config:rw
      - /volume1/homes/user123/projects:/home/coder/project:rw

the IDE:

the part of code-server log:

After reloading the browser, the extensions that were previously installed and visible in the browser section disappeared. What caused this sudden disappearance, and what is the reason behind it?

Also, I noticed in the browser's networking log that vsda_bg.wasm and vsda.js were not found. What is the purpose of these files and why they might be triggering a 404 error?

vsda seems to have something to do with signing. It does not appear to exist at all in the OSS build of VS Code so I assume Microsoft adds it afterward to their non-OSS build. From a brief look I think it is optional, though. When I install the Material icon theme it shows up in the remote section (not the browser section) and when I reload the page it remains in the remote section so I am not sure why the behavior is different for you. I installed 4.16.1 using the installation script and ran it directly with the default settings except with auth disabled. I installed the extension through the UI.
