Describe the bug
The debugging interface will not allow for pausing, stepping through code, nor does it highlight code blocks for projects with pxt-jacdac if there is a physical device connected and powered on or if just a bare microbit is connected to makecode

Tested using the Forward Education Climate Action Kit as well as the KittenBot jacdac kit on Windows

Steps

  1. Create a program with at least one jacdac block
  2. Download the code to a microbit
  3. Switch to the debugger
  • Code execution can't be controlled or followed
  1. Plug the microbit into the edge connector of a breakout board, make sure it's powered off
  • Debugger now works as normal
    5 . Toggle the power switch on the breakout board
  • Debugger breaks again

Video demonstration of the steps taken. The file is too large to upload in a comment so here's the link to it on the Forward Education Google Drive.
